Baraka Community Partnerships

baraka community partnerships is a small charity founded in 2007 when three friends, who had travelled around the world, had witnessed so much inequality first hand; they decided to get together with a view of making a difference. starting with one project in the atlas mountains of morocco, baraka has since evolved to encompass a multitude of projects concentrating in zambia and laos baraka community partnerships doesn't give cash handouts because we want to look at long-term solutions. we want the changes in communities to come from them - their ideas, their goals and aspirations. by developing schools, promoting healthcare and instigating water and sanitation projects, we try to galvanise communities to build their own sustainable, self-sufficient futures. all projects are suggested or initiated by locals, so we can help them build their vision for their community to make it a reality. where possible we ask the community to contribute in some format such as labour, local materials
