Charity

10% of the gross sale of every single item we sell goes directly to supporting Life For Unity.

Life For Unity is an international humanitarian foundation working mainly in Kenya and Nepal, where it builds and supports schools, provides daily meals, and delivers basic medical care to vulnerable children and families in underserved communities. It focuses on long-term, hands-on development work such as education programmes, classroom construction, and healthcare support, often delivered with international volunteers working alongside local teams. The organisation aims to reduce poverty and improve living conditions by combining education, health services, and practical aid in the communities it serves.

How and why did I choose them?

I follow and personally support several different grassroots charities around the world, but I wanted to focus our partnership on Life For Unity because they started from nothing and have already built a school and community in Kenya, helping children get education and basic medical treatment especially with widespread malaria.

It was started by one woman from Latvia, where I grew up, and inspires me to work harder and reminds me that each one of us can make a difference. As Jane Goodall said, "each one of us has a role to play". Without this, many children wouldn't make it.

There are many places on earth than need our support and with time I hope our network of charities will grow too. Life For Unity is my starting point and my inspiration.
