FSD's amazing "Projects of Hope" (projectsofhope.org) provides direct assistance to women and children in rural Kenya. Funds go directly to provide health care for the women and children and schooling for the children. Additional projects include microfinance loans for employment and building basic housing shelters. A worthy and exceptional cause.

Review for Foundation for Sustainable Development, Oakland, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

High Quality Organization. I support FSD through the work of Projects of Hope (www.projectsofhope.org), an organization that assists rural Kenyans affected by AIDS/HIV, through anti-poverty initiatives, education, health care, housing and micro-finance. Very worthy organization.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Touching rural Kenyans lives; providing health care, education, a sense of dignity,self worth, and empowerment for women. Many of the people served have been stigmatized and out-cast, as a result of having been affected by AIDS/HIV.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

Highly efficient use of funds. Dollars get to the people in need and make a tremendous difference in their lives. Confidence that funds make it to where they are intended.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
