Support the GVI Charitable Trust

Dear Supporters,

In this second quarter we’ve had many amazing things happening with our various projects around the globe.

Through much dedication and hard work with our partners we’ve managed not only to achieve our goals but to sustain an everlasting future for these projects. We’re very excited to share some of our achievements over the course of this quarter.

The Educational support in Mal Pais Costa Rica project has had a successful 6 months as their student initiative beach clean ups are now constant and the students are happy to tell their teachers how much rubbish they collected from their local beaches. Also their BYO birthday initiative is encouraging the community to refuse single use plastic and local birthday parties have become Green Events! A fantastic initiative we could all learn from as they’re setting a wonderful example for the next generation.

Empowering and Upskilling Woman and Students in India focused their programs on supporting community groups. With 4-day and 8-day workshops covering topics such as spoken English and grammar, the environment, travel and geography and recycling. To supplement the extra-curricular learning they engaged community groups in fun craft activities , games and creative teamwork activities. Through these workshops students have demonstrated teamwork, communication and leadership skills. As well as showing understanding and awareness for local and global issues, whilst developing problem solving skills, building their confidence and improving their presentation skills.

The success of these projects are just an example how we can make a difference in communities and the environment.

We could not achieve this without the continued support from you!

We sincerely would like to thank everyone for their contributions as you continue to inspire for a better future!

Keep a close eye, we’re looking forward to sharing all the exciting things coming up over the next few months!

With Gratitude,

The GVI Trust

Dear Supporters,

As we launch ourselves into 2019, we would like to take a look back on 2018 and say thank you to all our donors, supporters and partners for your contributions, without you, 2018 would not have been possible.

In 2018 we raised around £127,442.00 and thanks to your support, we were able to provide another year of support to over 30 projects in over 13 different countries.

To name a few of the things we accomplished in 2018 as a team;

In South Africa we delievered 81 sewing workshops, 2,395 computer lessons, 84 girls empowerment lessons.
In Nepal, HART ran a 5 day campaign that neutered and vaccinated 201 dogs.
In Laos they achieved their goal of sponsoring over 100 students and ran a Menstrual Health Initiative that has reached over 699 woman, which we recently raised £2,615 for in a fundraiser.
In India we raised $491 for the disaster relief after flooding.
In Thailand we continued to support our three elephants, Khum Suk, Lulu and Sadja, where they were able to spend another year free in the forest.
In Zimbabwe, we continued to support the healthy lunches of 250 day scholars, encouraging them to attend school. In Akumal, we raised $1,737 in a fundraiser for diving equiptment and materials for the coral restoration project.
In Fiji we focused on the building of compost toilets, WaSH workshops, water usage and hygiene and sanitation.

There have been so many amazing things that have happened over 2018 and we are so thankful for everyone who contributed in there own way.

In 2018, The Trust has been working internally on many changes that we will be launching in 2019, such as a brand refresh, new website and new fundraising platforms!

We look forward to sharing another year strengthing communities and protecting our planet, as a team.
