OUR AIMS
PiCCA (Partners in International Collaborative Community Aid Ltd.) pools donations of money, time and expertise to assist communities overseas work towards greater equity, opportunity, justice and peace.
We recognise that these are aspirational goals for many, but we are driven by the idea that they are fundamental human rights and that we all have an intrinsic power to make a positive difference to our world.
A commitment to human rights, equity and social justice motivates and guides us. We seek to work in partnership with overseas communities on development projects that are locally identified, led and governed.
We hope to make practical contributions to improving grass roots level education, health, livelihood, women’s participation and food security outcomes in these communities and seek always to operate with fairness, transparency and accountability in all the work we do.
