Projects we fund
If you only have access to dirty water, you need to boil it to make it drinkable. The heating of water causes air pollution and emits CO2. For that reason, we help minimise the emissions of CO2 by giving people in small towns in Uganda and Zimbabwe access to clean water.
We participate only in Gold Standard and Vera projects that meet the harsh demands of UN-accredited auditors. Gold Standard for the Global Goals certify high-quality projects within project design, efficiency, governance and documentation.
Where does the money go?
Imagine donating a percentage to a clean ocean, tree planters, and smog reduction, without having to research the projects beforehand.
We allocate funds to each project on your behalf and ensure it is properly spent on Verra and Certified Gold Standard Projects to make a maximum impact.
