Life Water Filter Kits
£45.00

Safe drinking water is still the biggest health issue around the world. We’ve sent out thousands of Life Water filters over the years, but many more are still needed. The filters kill 99.99% of harmful bacteria without chemicals. Each filter provides 10 litres of clean water per hour for a year, but we supply a second filter to double the kit’s life.

£45 will pay for a water filter kit and replacement candle (filter)
Moringa Trees
£10.00

The Moringa tree is nutritious, anti-bacterial and economic! This amazing tree grows at a rate of 5 feet per year, is super-nutritious and anti-bacterial. It can even be used to purify water and it’s said that it could alleviate world-hunger. We’d like all our partners worldwide to have some!

Cost: £10 per 5 trees
Mosquito Nets
£7.00

Malaria still kills more people worldwide than the HIV virus. Our work in this field has found that people’s main need is protection against mosquitos through nets. We’ve also found that asking for a nominal charge ensures that they are valued and looked after. Local Community Healthcare teams train families in how to use them effectively.

Cost: £7.00 provides a net that protects a whole family
Micro Enterprise Start Up
£50.00

Our successful Micro-Enterprise trainees are encouraged to create business plans with a view to setting up in business, thereby empowering them to work their own way out of poverty. Once approved, we can help with a startup loan to buy the equipment they need. Ongoing support from local scheme administrators (also trained by Links) means our repayment rate is exceptionally high and funds are then passed on to a new loan applicant.
Cost: £50-£250 will set up a family in their own micro-enterprise business.
Pigs and Goats
£40.00

Several of our partners are now running projects based around distributing livestock – particularly pigs or goats – as a means of ongoing income. Training is given in the animal husbandry necessary to rear and breed animals, and then female piglets or goats are given away.

The result is a sustainable and – literally – reproducible source of income. The joy on the faces of the recipients says it all. These animals will make a huge difference to their lives and the lives of their dependents.

Cost: £40
