Out of sight, out of mind? Then help them be heard!

I’m an avid believer that the most lasting gift is teaching those less fortunate to help themselves.
Project TOTO (The Overseas Training Operation) is a unique program by ActionAid that helps locals in poverty-stricken and oppressed regions to harness the power of social media to secure their human rights. By bringing their own plight to the world, they can entice international pressure and garner public support.
While they’re out of sight, they’re out of mind, so help shine a light on injustice.
In order to continue the program, ActionAid needs to raise $10,000. It’s my aim to help them raise a tenth of that. Please use the ‘donate now’ button above to make a contribution.
NOTE: If you donate to Project TOTO and they are unable to reach their target of $10,000, they will notify you and refund your donation on request - otherwise funds will go towards ActionAid's other important project work.
