Our support goes a long way 

Who We Support 
 
At Intouch Global Foundation, we are currently supporting several charitable projects and organisations, both locally and internationally. The projects we get involved with all work towards reaching various Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)  – these are 17 global goals set by the United Nations to “end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity.”
 
Thanks to the backing of Intouch Games, we can choose to focus on specific SDGs. So, the projects we focus our support on mainly include those concentrating on health, education and gender equality.
 
In short, allowing people the opportunity to have good health allows people to get on with their daily lives. This means that instead of spending money on medication or time at home looking after ill loved ones, people have the chance to get an education.
 
This information can then be passed onto others, in a sustainable way, or help people get secure jobs.  Education is a powerful tool in eliminating wealth and gender disparities.
 
One of the biggest causes in education imbalance is gender inequality. This is one reason why gender equality is one of the SDGs we primarily focus on. Gender equality is also key to a sustainable future as it creates a world that empowers women and girls at all levels.
 
All of this helps eradicate poverty and enables economies to grow and communities to flourish.
 
Combining all these points creates the perfect base for sustainability. Opportunities to succeed should not be based on someone’s health, education, gender and background. We aim to level the playing field and help those charities that want to better their communities for the present and future. 
 
We also help charities by providing funding, staying in contact, and encouraging others to donate. 
 
Despite our selected charities and projects spread across the world, we maintain regular contact to preserve close relationships, something which is very important to us. Excitingly, when given the opportunity, staff from Intouch Games visit some of the charities we support.
 
We love to share the updates of how the charities are progressing through our Facebook page and our regular blogs. So, head over to see what we, and the charities we support, are up to. If you would like to get in contact with us head over to our 'Contact Us' page.

book aid international​
