Selfless is an independent international development organisation, initiated and lead entirely by young people, that works through volunteers to fight poverty in developing countries. Our vision is to empower communities countries by sharing skills, knowledge and by providing healthcare where needed. Our only commitment is to try and make a difference.
Our ultimate vision is for Selfless to encompass a number of different specialities and professions, aiming to harness the enthusiasm of young people and channel it towards worthwhile projects, bringing benefit to those communities in need, worldwide.
There is an old adage, ‘give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach him to fish and you feed him for a lifetime’. This closely reflects the ethos of Selfless; our aim, rather than acting as a funding body, is to equip people and communities with the skills they need to improve their lives and, eventually, their nation.
