We back projects that meet urgent needs, from classrooms to clean water, and we stay long enough to see the results last.

Transparency & trust

Every project is audited and reported on in plain language, so donors can follow a gift from our account to the field.

Success Stories

Three stories from the field

Three recent projects, told through the families and communities who lived them.

Children learning together in a bright new classroom

From Empty Classrooms to Bright Futures

Pupils in a rural district learned on the ground under a tree, sharing a single textbook.

What we funded:

A $120,000 grant paid for five new classrooms, desks and 1,200 sets of learning materials, built together with local masons.

What changed:

Enrollment rose by 45% within two years, and the first graduating class is now applying to colleges.

Mobile medical units parked and ready to deploy

Healing on Wheels

Villages hours away from the nearest clinic had no doctor and almost no medicine.

What we funded:

We funded a mobile clinic van and a rotating nurse team that visited 18 villages in its first six months.

What changed:

More than 4,000 patients were treated, and every child under five on the route received routine vaccines.

Hope After the Storm

A typhoon swept the coast and left whole villages without shelter or food.

What we funded:

Gifts totalling $85,000 paid for relief kits, safe drinking water and temporary shelters.

What changed:

About 1,800 people were housed and fed through the first weeks, buying their neighbourhoods time to rebuild.

In their own words

Gifts become classrooms, clinics and harvests. Here is what families, partners and donors tell us about the work.

"Larkspur's team stayed with our school network from the first budget to the final report, so we could see every stage of the project and every dollar it used."

"Since the new well opened, a water walk that took half a day takes ten minutes. My children are healthier and I finally have time for my market stall."

"I used to wonder where my gift ended up. Now the plain-language updates show me the village, the project and the result."
