Empower Projects is a brand that envisions a world where rural communities can lead their own positive change with confidence and optimism. They focus on empowering these communities in Malawi and Sri Lanka to achieve self-reliance. With 100% local leadership, their projects are led by inclusive and democratic committees, ensuring that the communities themselves have a say in their development.

As a volunteer-run organization, Empower Projects ensures that at least 94% of your donation goes directly towards their projects, which are delivered by full-time local staff. Their long-term approach involves partnering with communities for a period of five years, during which they prioritize locally determined needs and implement ecologically sustainable solutions. By supporting rural cooperatives and schools, Empower Projects enables these grassroots initiatives to make a positive impact and create a better future for rural communities.
