Together For Gambia is a non-profit organization focused on improving the well being and giving back to the people of The Gambia. Today, nearly half of the population in The Gambia are living below the poverty line and many more struggle to have one good meal a day. We are devoted to fighting this because hunger demoralizes the vibrant spirits of the people of The Gambia. Every human being deserves the dignity of a decent meal each day. Our goal is to serve as a bridge to give the fortunate an opportunity to lend a hand to those who are less fortunate.

Today, most of our population growth is being accommodated at the fringes of suburban cities in a sprawling, low-density fashion. These new communities are highly consumptive of rural and agricultural lands, energy, water and material resources, and create traffic congestion. As a result, they also emit damaging amounts of toxins and greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. SUDA gathers and disseminates information about sustainable city-building, undertakes practical research as funds allow, and communicates with key stakeholders about opportunities and benefits of building environmentally-responsible communities.

Ubuntu is the brainchild of Edmonton’s Nicole Pageau (Maman Nicole). In 2004, Maman Nicole was so moved by the suffering in Rwanda that she sold all her belongings and used the proceeds to help the people of Kimironko – a destitute village populated entirely by widows and children. Ubuntu has sponsored several projects which are currently improving the lives of widows and orphans in many important ways. A food bank, a community centre, a sponsorship program, a sewing cooperative, a craft, knitting and embroidery cooperative, a community garden, and a daycare centre are Ubuntu's major achievements. They represent concrete steps towards the goal of economic self-sufficiency for the widows and children of Kimironko.

The slaughter of wildlife is reaching unprecedented levels. Poaching of wildlife and elephants and rhino in particular, has escalated as a result of the rising demand for ivory in Asia and the Middle East. Some experts estimate that as many as 35,000 elephants a year are being slaughtered, 10% of Africa’s elephant population each year. Big Life Canada Foundation was established to combat the poaching of elephants and wildlife and to protect their habitat. Its current geographic scope is the Amboseli ecosystem, which straddles the Kenyan-Tanzania border, and is comprised of approximately 2 million acres. Big Life Foundation Canada will focus on establishing anti-poaching camps in the highest needed areas of Kenya & Tanzania.
