Some gifts help for a day. This one lasts a lifetime.

Accountability

Where your money goes, and how we prove it

We publish annual reports and financials, and we audit every facility we build, every year. Your gift supports our work across Pakistan, including schools, healthcare, clean water, and the people who keep them running.

We are proud to share that our entire board operates on a 100% voluntary basis. Most importantly, we are a non-religious, non-political organization, rooted in the belief that equality and access should never be limited by background, identity, or circumstance. Everything we do is grounded in inclusion and opportunity.

General Donations

More than 85% of total funding comes from the general public. We don’t have big pockets but we hope to achieve great things and can only do this with your support. As much as we plan ahead, we are always in need of funds. Your donation to our general fund helps to ensure we are covered especially in our most difficult times.

Donations can be designated to a specific project, or they are distributed across project sites in Ghana, Sierra Leone and Pakistan.

100% of proceeds will go towards these causes.
