ActionAid
ActionAid was founded in 1972 as a child sponsorship charity when 88 UK supporters sponsored 88 children in India and Kenya, the focus primarily being to provide children with an education. The organisation is now one of the UK's largest development agencies helping over 13 million of the world's poorest and most disadvantaged people worldwide, working with local partners to make the most of their knowledge and experience.
