Our foundations
Basic Foundations was founded by Alex Hayes, Sam Fox and Zoja Milovanovic after a visit to Kenya in August 2010. It was set up to support small projects that are overlooked by other donors, because of their size or capacity.
How we work
Basic Foundations identifies projects we think we can really help, who have a specific need or objective that will help them take the next step.
The plans come directly from the organisations themselves, they tell us what is needed and we work with them to make it a reality. We assess the proposals, ensure their viability, agree an approach for delivery.
Funding
We don’t donate money, pay for ongoing costs or put our funds into general ‘pots’ of money. We pay for equipment, local resources and labour to undertake specific work that we can see through to completion.
The aim is to provide something tangible and help the organisation or projects move forward so that we can leave them stronger.
We fundraise in the UK. Find out more below.
