Locally-led non-profits and the communities involved have the expertise and knowledge to tackle the social injustices in their local setting. These NGOs are the first to respond, last to leave, and are responsible for 70% of all impact in development cooperation. However, they directly receive only 2% of the total global aid budget.
Imagine how much impact can be made, if locally-led NGOs would receive more than this marginal 2%! That is exactly our ambition! In three years’ time we hope to:
Your donation supports the locally-led projects ánd our mission. Or choose one project to support. Donors always receive a short report from the NGO about how donations were used.
iMPACT direct’s unique approach
In the countries we work, we find and carefully select professional locally-led non-profits.
We facilitate direct connections between donors and local non-profits, through our website, with applications to grants and in (online) events.
And we transfer 95% of your donation to the non-profits and their already successful local solutions. The non-profits decide on how to spend the donations.
This approach is unique in the Netherlands. With additional funding, locally-led nonprofits can improve more lives right away. It means more impact for less budget in less time.
Your donation directly benefits people living below the poverty line. The online projects show that an average of €15 can support one person with a sustainable solution on income, climate or advanced education.
