We strive to improve the lives of the most vulnerable, in particular women and children living in the world’s least developed regions. We are committed to helping them restore their dignity, reduce their vulnerability and enhance their resilience.
We support impact-driven initiatives in low-income countries that enable people to live a meaningful and fulfilling life in an inclusive, equitable and safe environment.
We are a grant-making foundation committed to addressing poverty through effective concrete action. We partner with non-profit organizations that are impact-driven, excel in their fields of expertise, share our values of trust, integrity and respect, and whose programmes are aligned with our core funding areas.
