This is what giving should feel like.
The Awari Collective connects individual donors directly with grassroots organizations in low- and middle-income countries. We make giving transparent, personal, and impactful—by bypassing traditional intermediaries and enabling donors to see exactly how their funds are used. Through curated matches, direct relationships, and regular updates from the ground, we’re reimagining global giving as something deeply human, not transactional.
Global philanthropy is broken. Too often, donations pass through layers of institutions, losing transparency, speed, and trust. Grassroots organizations—those closest to the problems—are underfunded, overlooked, and often invisible to donors. Meanwhile, donors feel disconnected, uncertain if their contributions are making a real difference. Awari solves this by restoring trust and connection in global giving. We create a pathway for donors to directly fund verified grassroots organizations and follow their impact in real time, bringing accountability and intimacy back into the act of giving.
