  14. FeelGood CertificationOUR PARTNER: THE HUNGER PROJECT Mission: To end hunger and poverty by empowering people to lead lives of self-reliance, meet their own basic needs and build better futures for their children. Where: 13 countries in Africa, South Asia and Latin America Charity Navigator: 4 Stars Budget: 79% Program, 16% Administrative, 5% Fundraising Program Overview: Hunger Project strategies build people's capacities, leadership and confidence. They train women and men, equipping them with the skills, methods and knowledge needed to take self-reliant actions to improve their lives and conditions in their communities. Our aim is to overcome the deep resignation people in the developing world often find themselves in as a result of failed development initiatives. The Hunger Project urges people not to wait to be rescued, but to take action now to meet their basic needs and partner with their local governments and NGO’s to start creating change. Impact: To date THP has enabled the self reliance of over 3 million people, has a unique track record of mobilizing rural communities out of extreme poverty in 3-5 years, is working in 13 countries and continues to empower the expertise and local leadership of our partners around the world.

  16. FeelGood CertificationOUR PARTNER: CHOICE HUMANITARIAN Mission: To build the capacity of rural villagers to cultivate and act on sustainable solutions to poverty by fostering village self-determination and international community building. Where: Mexico, Guatemala, Bolivia, Kenya and Nepal Charity Navigator: 3 Stars Budget: 81% Program, 14% Administrative, 5% Fundraising Program Overview: CHOICE works with motivated villages teaching communities to be self-developing. Villagers learn both leadership skills and successful approaches for working with their local governments, other NGOs, and each other. Community led and chosen projects include school houses, water systems, and greenhouses, but these learn-by-doing construction projects are actually tools for teaching villagers the necessary skills for becoming self-developing. CHOICE works closely with each village, but only on community-driven projects, since projects imposed by outsiders often fail. This standard dramatically increases the efficacy of the training and the sustainability of the project or initiative. Impact: CHOICE’s Self-Developing Village Model is at the core of a unique program which has impacted more than 150,000 people. Villagers in 5 countries are improving their standard of living and pulling themselves out of extreme poverty, as their communities take part in a village-driven effort to improve their lives.
