Who are we?
We are a UK-based charity that has 12 different partners around the world each of whom are directly involved in positive transformation for individuals, communities and the environment. We take pride in the working relationships we’ve developed with these International Partners, and are especially proud of the specific projects we support. Our Partners are based predominantly in Sub-Saharan Africa, plus India and Nepal, and all have a Christian ethos at their heart.
With our partners we’re working to redress the balance for developing nations: the balance of dignity, equality, and the opportunity to stand on your own two feet.
The projects we support provide grassroots opportunities for Education, Employment, Environmental Sustainability and Community Development. Along with supporting the most vulnerable, they also demonstrate that – with the right training, resources and opportunities – people from developing nations are often the best solution to their own problems.

How is TBC involved?

It is headed up by Kenyanito Dudi, and involves of a range of community-based support, plus a high-quality school, for orphans and vulnerable children living nearby. 80% of the children have lost one or both parents, and the support from TBC helps ensure that the feeding programme at the school can continue, as well as providing funds that can be used to ensure children are able to access medical-care as and when they need it.
