The Client
IHelp Global is a UK-registered charity and international NGO, founded in 2009 by a group of young individuals committed to making a positive impact on the lives of those affected by poverty and hardship. With passion, dedication, and a clear vision, the group engaged their local community and gained strong support to launch what has now grown into a globally recognised charity. Since its inception, IHelp Global has transformed lives by providing sustainable livelihoods, educational training, and environmentally focused initiatives—aimed at reducing poverty and addressing climate change in some of the world’s most underprivileged regions.
