Wildlife ACT is a conservation organisation based in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, that focuses on on-the-ground endangered species conservation efforts, the daily monitoring of priority species within protected areas, and the management of human-wildlife conflict, and the promotion of community involvement in conservation. Of particular focus for the organisation is the critically endangered African Wild Dog and Black Rhino, as well as the six Vulture species found in South Africa - of which, several are critically endangered. Through the help of their voluntourism model, Wildlife ACT has been able to provide sustained, free professional monitoring services to more than ten Zululand protected areas for 15 years, as well as contributing endangered species management across Africa, and the restoration of North Island, Seychelles. Wildlife ACT's mission is to save our planet's endangered wildlife and wildlands from extinction. Our aim is to develop and implement innovative, ground based and sustainable conservation models that save our wildlife, protect our wilderness, and benefit our local communities. Our quest is to create inspiring connections with the wilderness, giving people pragmatic ways to support and be part of effective on-the-ground conservation work. Our promise: Real, honest conservation where it's needed most. Through strategic partnerships, sustainable funding models and developing technology: - Implement strategic monitoring and research to inform and enable effective conservation management of wildlife. - Understand the needs of surrounding communities, and develop innovative programs to facilitate socio-economic advancement. - Use Africa-centric, people oriented models to drive wild area expansion. Another essential aspect of Wildlife ACT's mandate lies at the interface of managing human-wildlife conflict and encouraging community conservation efforts. Many people living adjacent to South Africa's protected areas and national parks have only a view across the fence. Wildlife ACT understands that in order for conservation efforts to be sustainable and meaningful, these gaps need to be filled. Their Community Conservation Programme aims to encourage participation in, and strengthen peoples' understanding of, the conservation sector, showcasing the value of nature and highlighting economic opportunities in the sector.

Mission: Palliative Care Network is dedicated to alleviating the suffering of patients who are combating serious illnesses through open access education for professionals worldwide. Vision: Palliative Care for Everyone, Everywhere Chronic diseases are the leading cause of mortality in the world, representing 60% of all deaths. 35 million people died from chronic disease in 2005. These include heart disease, stroke, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes. 80% of chronic disease deaths occur in low and middle income countries (1). Healthcare professionals lack appropriate training to care for patients as a "whole" and, in particular, fall short in skills to care for patients with diseases with poor prognosis. Quite often, patients receive poor end-of-life care, even in societies with technologically advanced healthcare. Ultimately, patients experience unnecessary pain and suffering during treatment of disease and at the end-of-life. Palliative Care Network (PCN) aims to address pain and suffering more effectively through education. PCN provides a FREE, online, educational platform for palliative care professionals. Registration on the website and access to materials remains free of charge allowing those who have limitations to remain abreast of palliative care trends. Expert interviews, lectures, presentations, posters, etc. are voluntarily shared on the PCN Community. Participants from Harvard share the same platform with palliative care providers from developing countries in Africa, landlocked Nepal and Mongolia, etc. PCN evens out the platform for palliative care professionals worldwide. The multiple projects initiated by PCN not only help the professional community in assisting patients and their families but allow palliative care providers to encourage each other. The PCN Directory lists professionals from around the globe interested in collaborating to exchange knowledge and information. For example, using the PCN Directory, an Indian physician connected with an American social worker to share cultural issues, myths, and norms about palliative care, grief, and loss. Additional success stories include collaborations with a professor of sociology, nurse, and a producer/director.

Ukhanyo Foundation Youth Empowerment NPC exists to restore hope, dignity, and opportunity for young people from South Africa's most underserved communities, with a core focus on supporting learners who have not passed the National Senior Certificate (NSC) and who face deep socio-economic barriers to completing their education. The organisation's mission is to equip these young people with the academic support, personal development tools, resources, and mentoring relationships they need to rewrite their matric successfully, transition into further education or employment, and break the cycle of poverty that restricts their life chances. Every year in South Africa, more than 800,000 learners sit for the matric examination. Despite the enormous effort invested by teachers and learners, significant numbers do not achieve a passing result. In recent years, roughly 30 to 35 percent of candidates have either failed, dropped out before reaching Grade 12, or passed without the requirements needed to progress into university or college programmes. This represents hundreds of thousands of young people annually who are immediately placed at a disadvantage in the labour market. South African labour statistics are clear: individuals without a matric certificate experience unemployment rates exceeding 55 percent, often becoming long-term unemployed due to limited access to skills development, workplace exposure, and formal sector opportunities. Without targeted support, these young people remain locked out of pathways to stability, economic participation, and self-determination. Ukhanyo Foundation positions itself as a bridge for these young people. Its mission is grounded in the belief that educational failure should never be a life sentence, and that with the right intervention, students who have failed their matric can rebuild their academic confidence, regain direction, and unlock their potential. The organisation provides structured, high-impact matric rewrite programmes designed to address the academic, emotional, and social barriers that led to underperformance. Tutoring is delivered by qualified educators and subject mentors, with a focus on key gateway subjects such as Mathematics, Mathematical Literacy, Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, Accounting, Business Studies, and English. Learners receive personalised learning plans, assessment feedback, and ongoing monitoring to ensure measurable improvement. However, Ukhanyo Foundation recognises that academic support alone is not enough. Many young people from disadvantaged communities face intersecting socio-economic pressures that make it extraordinarily difficult to study, concentrate, complete assignments, or plan for the future. These include poverty, food insecurity, unsafe living conditions, family responsibilities, lack of study space, trauma, and emotional stress. For this reason, the organisation integrates psychosocial support, life-skills development, personal growth workshops, and coaching sessions into all programmes. Learners develop resilience, self-awareness, communication skills, career clarity, and emotional intelligence, enabling them not only to pass their exams but to navigate adulthood with greater confidence and stability. In addition, Ukhanyo Foundation is committed to tackling the structural inequality that shapes youth unemployment. Its mission includes strengthening pathways to employability by offering career guidance, CV support, digital literacy training, workplace readiness workshops, and connections to partner organisations, training providers, and potential employers. By equipping learners with both education and employability skills, the organisation supports long-term outcomes that extend far beyond the moment of receiving a matric certificate. At its core, Ukhanyo Foundation's mission is to disrupt the recurring cycle where disadvantaged learners become disadvantaged adults and where educational setbacks dictate lifelong disadvantage. The organisation seeks to build a future in which young people from historically marginalised communities have equal access to quality education, resources, and opportunities. The Foundation aims to produce empowered, confident, employable, and socially responsible young adults who can contribute positively to their families, communities, and the broader South African society. Through community partnerships, collaborative work with schools, social workers, parents, and youth organisations, Ukhanyo Foundation fosters an ecosystem of support that extends beyond the classroom. Its mission is to ensure that no young person is left behind due to circumstances of birth, socio-economic hardship, or temporary academic failure. Every learner who enters the programme is treated with dignity, encouraged to dream again, and guided through the practical steps needed to transform those dreams into real, tangible achievements. Ultimately, Ukhanyo Foundation Youth Empowerment NPC is driven by a commitment to inclusivity, educational justice, and meaningful youth upliftment. Its mission is to champion second chances, create sustainable pathways for young people to rise above adversity, and contribute to a society where potential is not wasted and every individual is supported to thrive.

How To Save Millions Of Lives With A Simple MP3 Player The solar-powered device developed by URIDU is used to provide health education to illiterate rural women in developing countries Every six seconds a child under five dies. Almost all of those deaths occur in developing countries - and most of them are entirely preventable. Millions of lives could be saved just by providing illiterate rural mothers with accessible health education. Unfortunately, bringing this knowledge to remote locations has so far been an enormous challenge for both governments and NGOs. A new project is tackling that problem with a groundbreaking solution based on solar-powered MP3 players. The so-called MP3forLife Player has been developed by URIDU (www.uridu.org), a German non-profit social enterprise. Each player contains more than 400 carefully selected answers to questions about health, nutrition, family planning, child care, work safety and many more topics. All texts are translated with the help of more than 10.000 volunteers from over 100 countries who participate in a unique crowdsourcing effort. Once the information has been translated it is recorded by a native speaker of the target language. Local NGOs are taking care of distributing MP3forLife Players free of charge to women in need. We conceived the MP3forLife Player for small group listening - it fosters discussion, exchange and group building", explains Felicitas Heyne, psychologist and founder of URIDU. We want to provide basic knowledge to illiterate rural women, but we also want to create a team spirit among them. They are key to positive change in their countries. Wherever women are empowered, a favorable spiral is set in motion. Health and education improve, populations stabilize, economies grow." The MP3forLife approach has been successfully implemented in Tanzania in co-ordination with the national Ministry for Health and Social Welfare. Further East African countries are following the example. About URIDU: URIDU is a German non-profit social enterprise that empowers rural women in developing countries using solar-powered MP3 players and mobile-friendly web content. The organization's website at www.uridu.org contains additional information.

One of the oldest charitable organizations in New York, St. George's Society (named after the patron saint of England) was founded by Englishmen living in New York in 1770 to celebrate St. George's Day and to assist fellow countrymen in need or distress. Over the years, SGS's assistance has taken a variety of forms: a bag of coal or a voucher to a woodpile to keep a family warm during the winter months; free ship passage on the White Star line back to England when the "American dream" did not work out for a spinster in 1898; a free hospital bed at St. Luke's Hospital for the ill (the average stay in 1927 was one month); a pawn ticket paid to retrieve a winter coat in 1904; assistance for "British War Brides" who found themselves in need upon their arrival in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s. Today, SGS has two main areas of philanthropic endeavor, a Beneficiary Program to assist disadvantaged New Yorkers of British and Commonwealth heritage, specifically the elderly, disabled and others in crisis; and a Scholarship Program for promising students enrolled at Lehman College, part of City University of New York (CUNY), in the Bronx. While the assistance SGS provides has changed over time, the purpose has remained the same - to help those who cannot help themselves. Since its founding 242 years ago, we have aided thousands of British and Commonwealth persons while striving to fulfill our mission statement: "Let mercy be our boast and shame our only fear." As a result of this unique record of charity, SGS has a close working relationship with the British Consulate-General in New York and for over a century each serving Consul-General has been SGS's Honorary President. His Royal Highness The Duke of Gloucester became SGS's Royal Patron in 2000. He takes an active interest in our work and has met several SGS scholars and beneficiaries on official visits to New York. SGS was also honored in 2000 with armorial bearings by the College of Arms in London, acting under the authority of the British Crown, to recognize the charity's long and respected history of aiding British and Commonwealth subjects in New York.

Premiere Urgence Internationale envisions a world where crisis-affected people have the means to meet their vital needs and shape their own future. We see access to healthcare, food, water, education, protection and safe housing as fundamental human rights and essential to all aspects of community well-being.

The Paardeberg Sustainability Initiative (PSI) was conceived in 2001, in recognition of threats to the biodiversity and natural resources of the Paardeberg , a privately-owned mountain in the Western Cape, South Africa. A primary threat is economic pressure facing some 50 farmers and landowners of the mountaintop and surrounding areas.Additional and aggravating threats are global climate shifts, poverty, limited statehood. compromised capacity, education and implementation/enforcement of legislation. These challenges must be addressed to fulfill world guidelines (Agenda 21,SDG's, et) for sustainable development. PSI is currently a VAT- registered Non Profit company [NPC] and Public Benefit Organisation with Section 18A tax exempt status. It is aligned with several partners which share its vision and operate in the Paardeberg, and in this sense can be described as collaborative facilitator. Through fundraising for various integrated non-profitable projects, the PSI seeks to promote sustainability in the Paardeberg and in broader Southern African contexts. The PSI also encourages local profitable enterprises to contribute generously and tax-efficiently to a central fund that is managed by the Board of Directors of the PSI. These funds are either 'ring- fenced' for specific projects, or allocated to projects requiring support, through a process that seeks to fulfill both the agenda of the donor and the mandate of the PSI. The PSI houses both enterprises (SMME's) and projects. Projects depend on the PSI for funding, while the enterprises represent potential sources of funds/assets for the PSI. The PSI acts as an umbrella offering core functions of administration, marketing, HR management, accounting, etc to all projects and SMME's based on an economy of scale. It is thus an ideal incubator to develop new businesses while minimizing risk. The vision of the PSI is to create a successful model of sustainable development, promoted by profitable enterprises and non-profitable projects, co-operating in partnerships that oversee responsible management of natural resources and biodiversity , within an economic framework that obviates the plague of poverty and social decay while upholding the law and supportive of good governance. The PSI has housed several projects, including the Paardeberg Fire Project, Paardeberg Environmental Awareness and Response(ongoing), Paardeberg Alternative Energy Solutions, Paardeberg Botanical Surveys, PSI NatReM Project and the Paardeberg Erosion Project. It is also acting as an incubator of SMME's engaged in these and other projects. All finances are conducted through a central bank account, but independently managed and audited for each project/business separately, as per the PSI MOI. The PSI does not prejudice the independence of enterprises or projects falling within its ambit. However, its role in protecting biodiversity and natural resources influences the directives it generates. Participation of all interested and affected parties of any single project or enterprise is key to the application of these directives.

Bududa Learning Center is an umbrella organization that includes a vocational high school, an orphans program for children, and a microfinance program for women. It is located in the isolated mountain district of eastern Uganda. It was founded by Canadian-born Barbara Wybar, who has been living on site a portion of each year for the past 14 years. This isolated region, one of the poorest in Uganda, is over-populated with most families having an average of 8 children. They live by growing their own food. Most of the region has no running water or electricity. Both the education and health care system are severely under-funded and inadequate. Jobs are scarce. Most people are hungry most of the time.

Slum Film Festival is the first ever film platform-featuring stories from slums, about slum realities and made by filmmakers from the slums in Africa - and beyond. It is a celebration of the creativity of filmmakers living and working in slums. It is also an opportunity to show a range of films within slum communities who have limited or no access to cinema. The first pilot edition of the festival was celebrated with success in August 2011. This program has now been extended and expanded in subsequent 4 editions between 2012 and 2014. The festival has reached out for submissions from across Africa and indeed the world. It has gathered audiences from thousands of slum dwellers and urban culture enthusiasts. There are numerous international film festivals around the world, but the Slum Film Festival is exceptional in its mission to be celebrated within slums, and it is dedication to sharing slum stories. More than just a festival, it is aiming to become an international film platform for young independent voices and upcoming and established filmmakers from across the universe. 2 The Organisation The Slum Film Festival is an independent organization, whose goal is to develop a network of partnerships with media production groups, organize film awards, facilitate and organise film screenings and conduct other film and arts related events across Africa's informal settlements, promoting and sharing slum stories from across the world, and becoming a key network for the distribution of films made by and about slum communities. Having run as a project of 2 media organisations [Slum TV and Hotsun Foundation] for 3 years, Slum Film Festival is now registered as an independent Community Based Organisation. 3 Our Objectives and Aims The Slum Film Festival does not aim to legitimise the existence of informal human settlements, but to raise public attention to pertinent issues here, while promoting and celebrating the creativity of the people who live in these communities. The aims of the Slum Film Festival are: To offer a platform for films from slum communities to reach broader audiences, and facilitate disenfranchised filmmakers in joining the international film circuit. To promote dialogue about life in slums that goes beyond stereotyping, using stories from slum communities to promote deeper perceptions about life in the slums. The Slum Film Festival demonstrates that slums are also a home for the very talented, creative and culturally active artists. For the festival event to become a magnet for media attention, while changing media discourses about slum realities. This media presence can also allow mainstream media to acknowledge the presence of smaller slum-based media content producers, and promote new partnerships. To support the expansion of the festival into new slum locations, eventually becoming a networked festival for celebrating the diversity of Pan-African and global creativity.

The Mamo Pracuj Foundation is dedicated to addressing the significant challenges faced by women returning to work after maternity, parental, and childcare leaves. Our mission is to empower these women by supporting their professional and personal development, enhancing their self-esteem, and helping them achieve a harmonious balance between family responsibilities and career aspirations. By aligning our activities with three key Sustainable Development Goals-Goal 5 Gender Equality, Goal 8 Decent Work, and Goal 10 Reduced Inequalities-we strive to create a more inclusive and equitable society.

The portal attracts 80-100,000 unique users monthly, ensuring accessibility for all women, including those with disabilities and those living in remote areas. By connecting job-seeking women with employers who value diverse talents and support work-life balance, we facilitate opportunities for women to develop businesses and achieve financial independence. We collaborate with employers on diversity and inclusion initiatives, employer branding, and recruitment campaigns. Notably, we established Poland's first Parent-Friendly Employer Database and network, promoting supportive work environments. A core aspect of our work involves empowerment programs providing individual support, workshops, and training. In 2023, over 3,000 women benefited from these initiatives. Our #MamoPracujwIT project, launched in 2016, encourages women to pursue IT careers and challenges gender stereotypes by showcasing diverse IT roles and sharing success stories of women in tech. We have conducted several reskilling projects, including three editions of Let's Do IT AKAdemy with Akamai, two editions of Destination IT, and one edition of Her Way to IT. By partnering with companies seeking to diversify their teams, we make it easier for women to find employment in the IT sector. Our community of nearly 13,000 women supports and motivates each other, united by the goal of increasing diversity in the tech industry. In 2023, our activities included nearly 6,000 applications for 15 development programs, with 3,000 places available. We provided 1,500 hours of individual support and organized 28 offline meetings with almost 800 attendees. We hosted 100 webinars with over 4,000 participants and reached almost 1 million users on our portal. Our partnerships with organizations like Google, CITI Foundation, State Street Global Advisors, State Street Bank, and Mercy Corps (with support from the American Red Cross) underscore our commitment to empowering women and promoting equal employment opportunities. Three of our development programs were featured in the 2023 Responsible Business Forum report, and our partnership with Google was highlighted in their 2024 Diversity Annual Report.
