About Us
The Australian Charity for Burundi connects dedicated Australians and the global community—including individuals, organisations, and enterprises—to contribute to grassroots empowerment in Burundi, where your assistance can have the most significant impact.
We raise funds to champion local initiatives, delivering sustainable aid, education, and economic opportunities to communities striving for stability and a brighter future. By focusing on practical solutions, our efforts directly empower deprived communities to overcome profound needs and improve their living conditions.
Our Values:
| Value | Definition | How it Relates to the Mission |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Compassion | We act from a deep, heartfelt empathy, driven by the desire to alleviate suffering and promote dignity. | Our compassion ensures that our support is not transactional but centred on the human worth of every Burundian, providing help with kindness, respect, and understanding. |
| 2. Community | We honour the power of local relationships, both in Burundi and in Australia, believing that sustainable solutions are built from the ground up. | We work in partnership with local Burundian communities and cultivate a community of support in Australia (donors, groups, businesses) to achieve a shared vision for stability. |
| 3. Collective Effort | We commit to maximising our impact by uniting diverse resources and efforts towards a common, transformative goal. | Our work is a direct result of many people—donors, volunteers, and local partners—pooling their funds, skills, and energy to achieve far more than any individual could alone. |
