Social Project

Together with various foundations and NGOs, we have helped different charitable projects. Nothing makes us more excited! We believe that 21st-century fair trade must be 100% transparent; consumers should be able to call and ask if this is real—it’s not enough to just post a photo or claim you do it. Here you will find the projects, and by checking the product batch, you can see which project it has been allocated to.

PROJECT IN NEPAL: HELPING CHILDREN IN NEPAL

CERTUS-BIO-FAIR IN INDIA
Paño Fruits has been selling Fair Trade organic sugar from India for many years. Through our project in this country, we aim to return money to the origin to contribute to its improvement and eco-social development, enhancing the living conditions of its inhabitants. For this work, we have the support of the Vicente Ferrer Foundation, with 50 years of experience in the country and its method.

PROJECT: HELPING CHILDREN IN NEPAL

This project is based on 3 points:
- Protection and schooling of the most vulnerable children, girls and boys aged 3 to 6, who live around the brick kilns.
- Assistance and rehabilitation for children with disabilities, with special focus on cerebral palsy
- Empowerment of caregivers, mostly women and adolescents.

In the last 54 years, the commitment of our collaborators has been essential in fulfilling our mission to support the most vulnerable communities in the fight against discrimination, inequality, and poverty.
We trust that we will continue together in this new challenge, to offer the children of Nepal the care they need.
With the goal of empowering women, the new homes are titled in their name, so they obtain property and an asset for the future of their daughters and sons.

PROJECT 2019: HOUSING CONSTRUCTION
This project will involve the construction of 15 homes for 15 families in the village of Chinnannavaripalli. These homes aim to improve the lives of these families and indirectly benefit the entire village and surrounding population.

PROJECT IN INDIA: 2018

PROJECT 2018: CONSTRUCTION OF WATER INFRASTRUCTURES
This project will involve the construction of a reservoir with a capacity of 91,520 cubic meters of water in the village of Buchaiahgaripalli. This reservoir will improve the availability of water resources to meet the agricultural and livestock needs of the local population, benefiting a total of 2,509 people.

Improvements in farming and livestock Most of the inhabitants of the state of Andhra Pradesh (where the village of the project is located) only know agriculture as their means of livelihood. This situation becomes particularly problematic because, in India, the lack of rainfall, combined with insufficient infrastructure for water management, makes it impossible to cultivate much of the land.
That is why the Vicente Ferrer Foundation, in this project, will construct a reservoir that will feed 35 surface wells, providing access to water for cultivation, directly impacting the economy of all the families in the village and surrounding areas.
This improvement will directly affect the lives of the local population, increasing their quality of life, and, on the other hand, it will enhance the ecological environment, increasing the biodiversity in the area.
