Secours Catholique - Caritas France

Our purpose is to reduce poverty, bring hope and solidarity to poor communities or individuals in France and worldwide. We bring assistance to families, children and young people but also to the most vulnerable (homelesses, migrants, prisoners etc.). We fight against isolation, help them to find employement and we ensure their social reintegration. We provide emergency responses but also long term support, development aid and we work on the causes of poverty. The action of Secours Catholique finds all its meaning in a global vision of poverty which aims at restoring the human person's dignity and is part and parcel of sustainable development. To do so, six key principles guide this action, both in France and abroad: Promoting the place and words of people living in situations of poverty Making each person a main player of their own development Joining forces with people living in situations of poverty Acting for the development of the human person in all its aspects Acting on the causes of poverty and exclusion Arousing solidarity The actions of Secours Catholique are implemented by a network of local teams of volunteers integrated into the diocesan delegations and supported by the volunteers and employees of the national headquarters. On an international level, Secours Catholique acts in cooperation with its partners of the Caritas Internationalis network. Key figures of Secours Catholique: 100 diocesan or departmental delegations 4,000 local teams 65,000 volunteers 974 employees 2,174 reception centres 3 centres : Cite Saint-Pierre in Lourdes, Maison d'Abraham in Jerusalem, Cedre in Paris 18 housing centres managed by the Association des Cites of Secours Catholique 162 Caritas Internationalis partners 600,000 donors Every year Secours Catholique encounters almost 700,000 situations of poverty and receives 1.6 million people (860,000 adults and 740,000 children). This daily mission led in the field by the local teams and delegations, with the support of national headquarters, pursues three major objectives which aim at exceeding the distribution action and limited aid: Receiving to reply to the primary needs (supplying food and/or health care aid, proposing accommodation, establishing an exchange and a fraternal dialogue, etc) Supporting to restore social ties (bringing together people in difficulty with an aim to reinsertion, encouraging personal initiatives and collective projects, establishing a mutual support helper-receiver of help relationship, etc) Developing to strengthen solidarity (proposing long lasting solutions, establishing a follow-up over the long term, encouraging collective actions carried out by people in difficulty etc.)

Teach for Afghanistan Organization

Teach for Afghanistan Organization (TAO) mission is to create a movement of collective leadership by empowering young Afghan men and women in most under-resourced schools to ensure all Afghan children have the opportunity to reach its highest potential. TAO provides an opportunity to Afghanistan's most promising university graduates to serve as full-time teachers to children in the country's most under-resourced schools. The fellowship is a two-year long commitment to teach in a classroom and create a productive environment of learning. The fellowship journey develops leadership skills in Fellows by constant support and mentoring. Through the two-year Fellowship program, these change makers get exposed to the grass root reality and then post the Fellowship, they work across the system in their own capacities to solve the educational inequity. TAO is based in 2 Provinces, Nangarhar and Parwan, has placed 230 Fellows in 69 schools impacting +60,000 students across 8 districts in these provinces. TAO is a partner organization of Teach For All which is a global network of 48 independent partner organizations. Teach For All's purpose is to expand educational opportunity internationally by increasing and accelerating the impact of independent social enterprises. TAO mission is to create a movement of leaders, Teach for Afghanistan Organization has developed a two-part theory of change. In the short-term, through our Fellowship program, we provide an opportunity to Afghanistan's most promising university graduates to serve as full-time teachers to children from low-income communities in most under-resourced schools. During this experience of teaching in classrooms and working with stakeholders like students, principals, and parents, our Fellows get exposed to the grassroots realities of education system and develop the knowledge, skills, and mindsets necessary to attain positions of leadership in the education system. In the long-term, we engage these leaders, our Alumni, and support this movement of leaders. Our Alumni work in diverse roles within the education sector, as teachers, teacher-trainers, school principals, curriculum designers, entrepreneurs all with a shared purpose to build a movement for educational equity that will maximize the progress towards that day when all children have the opportunity to attain an excellent education. TAO wants to streamline Afghan diaspora who has major giving capacity and want to contribute back to the community. Unfortunately, we are still a new organization and partnering with global giving will give us another accreditation and credibility of work making it easier for people who are not able to donate us. Other than that, our main aim to reach more and more people and impact more students which needs considerable support from Afghan diaspora around the world.
