Heifer is on a mission to end hunger and poverty in a sustainable way by investing in agriculture and supporting small-scale farmers to earn a sustainable living income and better integrate rural women, youth and indigenous populations into more inclusive value chains. To achieve our goals, we operate in the mentioned 19 countries across four continents through locally staffed and led offices. HNL is part of the global Heifer International network and operates as Heifer's gateway to Europe. HNL focusses on building partnerships and raising funds from European donors to support local initiatives, such as this proposed project in Bangladesh. While the local Heifer team in Bangladesh manages project design and implementation, HNL is responsible for mobilizing and securing funding partners and managing donor relationships after a grant has been approved. As such, HNL also oversees coordination with donors' grant preferences. Grants and donations that HNL receives for specific projects such as this one, are transferred one-on-one to the relevant Heifer office in the country of project implementation, in this case Bangladesh. Empowering women is one of the cornerstones in Heifer's approach. Since 1999 HNL has raised funds that supported 109266 female farmers. In FY 2024, HNL has supported 15568 female farmers. Heifer started working in Bangladesh in 2006, and to date have supported more than 139000 families across 6 districts in the northern part of the country.
Alice for Children by Twins International ETS is an Italian NGO operating in Kenya since 2006, focusing on improving the quality of life for vulnerable communities in the slums of Nairobi and the rural area of Rombo, near the Tanzanian border. The organization collaborates with local communities to address systemic challenges, emphasizing access to education, healthcare, and economic empowerment while protecting and promoting human rights in the remote and neglected areas. Key initiatives include establishing schools in underserved areas, improving infrastructure, and providing resources to foster sustainable development. In the slums of Dandora and Korogocho, where the Organization first began working in 2006, Twins International manages 1 Early Childhood Care Centre (Baby Care) and 8 schools (primary, junior secondary and secondary), together with local community-based organizations, that offer education and support to children living in extreme poverty. The slum areas, characterized by a lack of basic services such as water and sanitation, are home to families who depend on informal work like waste collection for survival. By focusing on education, the organization offers children a path out of poverty and an opportunity to achieve long-term stability. Beyond education, Twins International has implemented programs that empower families and communities through healthcare access, food assistance, and adult training initiatives.
Crossing Borders (CB) is a non-profit, non-partisan civil society organisation. The vision of CB is a world in peace with itself in which diversity is celebrated. The mission is to create dialogue space toward such a world and to build the capacity of youth, media workers and educators to realise the above vision. The overall goal is to enable people with different backgrounds to learn to live together on equal terms. Crossing Borders started as a project in 1999 in Denmark in support of meaningful dialogue between the conflict parties in the Middle East. In response to increased activities and demands for the CB concept and services, it was transformed, in 2004, into a dynamic organization with activities in Denmark and abroad.
Transformers Organization is a grassroots initiative committed to empowering young lives and building brighter futures in Nairobi's Mathare slums and beyond. Our mission is to support adolescent girls, teen mothers, and youth through mentorship, life-skills development, and access to opportunity. We place special focus on STEM education and digital literacy, recognizing that girls in rural and urban informal settlements are often excluded from tech spaces. By offering coding and digital skills training, we aim to bridge the gender gap in technology, boost confidence, and prepare girls for a future driven by innovation. Alongside STEM, we provide livelihood training in fashion design, carpentry, and entrepreneurship, helping youth build resilient paths out of poverty. We believe that when girls are equipped with the tools to code, create, and lead, they become powerful agents of change-not just for themselves, but for entire communities. Together, we can.
