To break the cycle of poverty by helping children stay in school.

GambiaRising helps low-income Gambians to better themselves through their own work - primarily through scholarships and financial assistance to Gambian students, especially girls, who otherwise might not be able to stay in school. We work in all regions of the country, but with a focus on remote rural regions, with all ages of students, without regard to religion, gender, or tribal background. Our only criteria are character and need, and the amount of difference that our support will make in recipients' lives. Where the absence of a school was the main barrier to education, we have also funded construction of 5 rural schools, usually by providing materials for a village to build its own school. All staff are volunteers, so that 100% of donations directly support students.

Care for Children is a global children’s charity with a vision and mission to see children across the world moved out of orphanages and into local families. We provide specialised training and support to orphanages, enabling them to set-up and run their own foster care programmes, as a safe and positive alternative to institutional care. This means that local authorities can start moving children out of orphanages and into local, loving families, where each child can be nurtured to reach their potential.

Books for Development addresses the book famine that prevents children and adults in many developing countries from learning to read. We do this by building library collections since we believe that the best contribution you can make to people’s development is to promote their literacy. As a non-profit, we take donated books, use volunteers to sort them and then ship them to poor countries to create libraries. We leverage our efforts--using free labor and donated books that might otherwise be dumped in a land fill. Books for Development was formerly known as Good Steward Global Initiative.
