PROJECTS

The Taylor Foundation partners with grass-roots organisations in developing countries to tackle some of the most pressing issues facing our world. We do this by focussing on education and eradicating the barriers to it.

The impact we’ve made recently:

  • Supported victims of human trafficking in Vietnam by providing staff, transportation costs, and rent for emergency shelters where victims can start rebuilding their lives

  • Sponsored 42 children to go to school in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia and India

  • Facilitated the roll out of mentoring programs for school children in South Africa

  • Assisted 17 women coffee farmers in Rwanda to go through a life changing skills development and life training course enabling them to run their own businesses

  • Covered the costs of operating a vocational training centre in Tanzania, which provides 30 women with technical and life skills so they can find work and support themselves and their families

  • Invested in the development of 30 acres of farmland to assist a school in Northern Uganda to feed their students and bring an income into the organisation

  • Fitted out a birthing unit in Myanmar to provide life-saving care to 3,000 pregnant women

  • Supported teacher training initiatives in Cambodia to increase the quality of education being delivered

  • Provided 300 birthing kits for rural women in Uganda

  • Supported local Early Childhood Development Centres in South Africa to improve the quality of their education and get them to a place where they are self-sufficient

  • Facilitated 100 hip replacements for critically disabled people in Ethiopia

  • Supported the development of a new school in the Pacific islands to improve the quality of education being delivered

  • Supported the humanitarian relief efforts in Turkey/Syria and Ukraine

  • In addition to the above, we have changed individual lives through: Providing a prosthetic eye for a child in Uganda, given bras and sanitary pad to teenage girls, provided a solar power fridge and freezer for a severely disabled child in rural Uganda with dietary complications.
