Our Mission
Al Madad Foundation is a UK registered charity since 2001, based in London.
Using art as a platform, we are committed to the promotion of literacy and education for disadvantaged children, in a bid to empower and emancipate, and seek to alleviate problems of poverty and exclusion.
Through multi media artistic expression, inter-cultural dialogue, educational projects and events, we work to educate and engage international actors to join us in developing and supporting programs to address these problems.
Global Child initiative was launched in 2012 and aims to empower and emancipate individuals in helping themselves onto the path of long term sustainable development. It explores new ways of engaging and thinking about humanitarianism by highlighting the common denominator between all children around the world and breaking universal barriers, preconceptions and misconceptions.
Through practical field research and inclusive discourse, we partner with local organisations to build a dialogue and support long term sustainable development and change by targeting those who need it most. We focus our efforts to offer support to their cause, exposure to their issues and funding to meet their needs.
The role of art is an invaluable and unrivalled form of expression that breaks all barriers, transcends borders, languages and cultures. It’s a unifier. The art exhibitions that Al Madad Foundation holds are tightly curated and tie concept to cause, funding the projects in question. They are about creating arenas for discussion, bridging gaps between artist, audience, donor, charity, beneficiary and cause alike.
Al Madad Foundation has two ongoing initiatives: START and Global Child.
