WHAT WE DO

Main areas of our focus

Protection of biological diversity

The creation of new protected areas such as nature reserves, and national and regional parks, as well as the conservation of existing ones. Fighting deforestation and habitat depletion. Fighting pollution of the atmosphere, water and soil. . 

Medical help and prevention

Preventive healthcare, or prophylaxis, is the application of healthcare measures to prevent diseases. Disease and disability are affected by environmental factors, genetic predisposition, disease agents, and lifestyle choices, and are dynamic processes that begin before individuals realize they are affected. 

Natural disaster relief

Assistance in the event of natural disasters

After a disaster, the Red Cross works with community partners to provide hot meals, snacks and water served as shelters or from Red Cross emergency response vehicles in affected neighborhoods. Emergency supplies help people in the immediate aftermath of a disaster and in the days and weeks that follow. 

Human rights and education

What is Medical Aid Scheme cover? It is a form of insurance. In exchange for a monthly contribution or a premium, you get financial cover for medical treatment you may need, as well as any related medical expenses. There are two kinds of medical schemes, namely, open and closed (restricted) schemes. 

This is our story

We have a simple yet ambitious Two-Step Plan at Canva: Step One is to build one of the world's most valuable companies, and Step Two is to do the most good we can

We believed that this could have a very positive immediate impact on individuals and can also compound to have a long-term positive uplift for communities..
