Charities

Doing reputable work all over the world and especially in Africa, these are charities in which we believe. They focus on various aspects of philanthropy and we invite you to check them out and get involved.

Camfed
By educating girls and empowering women to become leaders of change, Camfed fights poverty and HIV/AIDS in Africa through operating community-based programs that place the needs of individual girls at the heart of their work.

Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project
The Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project (CTAOP) is committed to creating a safer and healthier life for impoverished children and communities of South Africa, and other African nations, with a particular focus on individuals suffering from HIV/AIDS.

Water.org
Co-founded by Matt Damon and Gary White, Water.org is a nonprofit organization that has transformed hundreds of communities in Africa, South Asia, and Central America by providing access to safe water and sanitation. Water.org works with local partners to deliver innovative solutions for long-term success in terms of providing safe water to those in need.

Comic Relief
Comic Relief’s vision is “a just world free from poverty.” Their mission, thanks to their comedy heritage and the relationship they enjoy with the BBC, is “positive change through the power of entertainment.”
