Tour Company
Visit their websitePack for a Purpose does not condone visiting orphanages, as this can often lead to negative impacts on children. The accommodation or tour company working with the orphanage will deliver the supplies in a coordinated and respectful way so that the children can benefit from them. Your generosity is not diminished because you do not interact with the children.

Project Description
Friends of Nomads was established out of a heightened awareness of the serious risk that illiteracy poses among the children of nomad families, and a sense of social responsibility to make a difference and improve the lives of children. Friends of Nomads are individuals who are engaged in investing in children’s futures and believe a child should have access to the basic right to an education.
