We are an Australian not-for-profit organisation primarily focused on supporting improved health and production of village chickens as they are often the only animals owned by vulnerable households, especially women-headed households. We also support local innovation for solutions to local problems, because communities know what they need. We believe in demand-driven development and the localisation of aid.
PALLADIUM CHALLENGE FUND
For the past 20 years, Palladium has committed 1.5% of profit before tax to this platform. Kyeema is excited to announce that we are partnering with Palladium to manage their global giving platform.
The Challenge Fund is now closed but will reopen again in 2022. Watch here for updates.
