The Problem
We gave 146 billion dollars in aid last year, but we gave less than one per cent of that money to local initiatives
Less than 1%
of international humanitarian aid goes to local initiatives
Lack of visibility
of high impact projects
Too much bureaucracy
in a system that reveres the middleman, not actual Changemakers
Lack of trust
when giving to small local initiatives
"As long as the aid sector keeps giving 100,000,000 to one large organisation - than 10,000 to 10,000 - local initiatives will keep struggling to survive - We're changing this!"
- Tarek Alsaleh, Founder
