Kids for Kids

Who we are

KIDS FOR KIDS helps children the world has forgotten, children in Darfur, Sudan, who live lives of inexcusable and unimaginable hardship.

Our key project is a goat loan – we don’t believe in charity, we believe in enabling people to help themselves. Children are malnourished in every village. Many have had no protein, minerals or vitamins for months on end, which not only means lasting damage to them physically, but their IQ is reduced, often irreparably.

Goat’s milk transforms a child’s health and enables mothers to feed their children while also offering a chance to earn an income. Kids for Kids also implements other sustainable projects, such as the training for midwives to bring maternal care to the villages. We install water pumps in every community we work with, and we also help to plant drought-resistant trees, providing fruit and shade and helping to stop the encroachment of the desert

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Our commitment to inclusion means that we positively embrace the diverse identities, histories, spiritual beliefs, abilities and lifestyles of our employees and volunteers, supporters, and the audiences to whom we speak and of those children and communities with whom we work in Darfur. It means that we value the richness that each unique person brings to our work.

We aim:
• to ensure that diversity is encompassed in all areas of our work
• to ensure that diversity is reflected at all levels of our work, from Trustees and employees to volunteers, beneficiaries and supporters
• to create leadership in Kids for Kids that reflects and manages diversity
• to ensure that all Kids for Kids staff, volunteers, supporters, and beneficiaries understand and value diversity and responsibly put it into practice
• to reinforce the business case and other practical benefits of diversity within our programmes and beyond

Kids for Kids recognises that while diversity is about valuing the many differences that exist between people, there are some groups who are particularly marginalised, socially excluded and denied equal rights. We will always be sensitive to age, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, faith and disability whilst seeking to create an environment where all differences are respected and cherished, as this brings benefits for everyone in the organisation.
