We are Taawun, a community of people who have two things in common; a passion to fight poverty, and the drive to do something about it.

Some of our people have the knowledge and ideas on how to make a real impact, while others have access to resources.

We believe that real sustainable change comes about when people are given the resources to build their own communities.
