We are a proud supporter of Hands Across the Water.

Hands Across the Water is an Australian, New Zealand and Thai charity that gives at-risk Thai children and their communities a helping hand. Their projects are tailored to meet local communities’ needs – for the long term.

In 2004, the Boxing Day tsunami left countless Thai children alone and homeless. Former police forensic specialist Peter Baines, working with the tsunami disaster victim identification team, was deeply touched by the number of children left homeless and alone by the natural disaster. He was inspired to establish an organisation that could make a real difference. In late 2005, a team of committed individuals with the desire to help others formed Hands Across The Water.

100% of donations goes to the kids and their communities. No donors’ money goes to administration, Or staff costs, Or marketing, Or fundraising.

Hand Across the Water support nearly 300 children in multiple locations across Thailand.

One of the biggest threats to gorillas is the illegal mining of coltan, a mineral used in mobile phones. Mining results in the clearing of essential habitat and drives the bush meat trade, further exacerbating the decline of primate populations. – YOU can help save gorillas in their natural habitat by donating your old phone.

Coltan is a metallic ore that is mined both in and out of Africa and can be found within many electronic devices such as mobile phones. The mining of coltan within the Congo River Basin is contributing to forest loss and unrest in the region and is accelerating the loss of mountain gorillas at an alarmingly fast rate. Whilst efforts are being made to tackle this issue, the majority of the worlds’ known coltan reserves are found within Africa, and mining within gorilla habitat continues.

What can we do? Money raised from donated phones will support rangers in the Democratic Republic of Congo to protect Mountain Gorillas (approximately 850 individuals left in the wild) or the donated phones will be refurbished and resold to disadvantaged community groups internationally. This not only reduces the demand for coltan mining in threatened gorilla habitats but also helps people in these communities improve their economic capacity

Since 2008, over 114,000 phones have been donated and reused or recycled through They’re Calling on You, raising more than $208,000 for crucial primate conservation.
