Help One Child Thrive
Help One Child Thrive (HOCT) is a charity organization taking care of orphans and needy children located in Idudi, Uganda, East Africa. These children lost their parents; some died of HIV/AIDS and others died of other common diseases – so these children are left with no one to help and care for them; others live with their grandparents who are also living below poverty line and who cannot provide basic necessities to these children. Going to school was, for many of them, an impossible dream.
The founder of Help One Child Thrive, Mugoya Swaliki, also grew up as an orphan; he had witnessed and experienced the hard life of those children and since he knew what it meant to be an orphan, he built the HOCT organisation to save these children from poverty, to help them live a better life and fulfil their dreams. To help them thrive.

Carbon180
Carbon180's mission is to design and champion equitable, science-based policies that bring carbon removal solutions to gigaton scale. Our vision is to eliminate legacy carbon emissions and create a livable climate in which current and future generations can thrive. The truth is, climate change can’t be fully addressed without removing legacy carbon from the atmosphere. Working closely with US policymakers, entrepreneurs, and peer organizations, we design policies that will bring necessary carbon removal solutions to gigaton scale. While many organizations focus on reducing emissions, we're the only team in the US exclusively dedicated to bringing together the people, resources, and vision to build a carbon-removing world. Together, we can create a livable climate in which current and future generations can thrive.

Earthworks
Earthworks stands with frontline communities opposing fossil fuels and dirty mining while advocating for a clean energy transition. A leader for the reform of mining practices, Earthworks advances legally binding regulations while promoting more responsible industry standards and holding corporations accountable for harmful impacts. Earthworks supports communities’ rights to make their own decisions about mine projects that will affect their well-being, livelihoods, and territories.
Earthworks co-founded the No Dirty Gold Campaign, which educates consumers, retailers, manufacturers about the impacts of irresponsible gold mining, and enlists their support to persuade the mining industry to clean up its act. Gold mining is one of the world’s dirtiest industries, using cyanide and generating 20 tons of waste to produce one gold ring, leaving permanent scars on landscapes and communities. More than 120 of the world’s leading jewelers and retailers committed to source metals more responsibility, including using more recycled gold. More than 100,000 global consumers asked retailers to ensure that their products were not produced at the expense of communities, workers, and the environment.
As countries around the world shift to a renewable energy system to avoid climate catastrophe, Earthworks is ensuring that this transition centers human rights and is powered by responsibly and equitably sourced minerals. The demand for new mining can be reduced through circular economy solutions such as reusing and recycling battery minerals, resulting in fewer emissions and a cleaner environment.
