Since 2003 Trade plus Aid® has committed funds to 12 development projects in Africa & Asia:

• In South Africa, Trade plus Aid® continued to support the Jabulani self-help centre near Durban with a donation £2159 to buy sewing equipment and has initiated a nutritional outreach program to feed a thousand desperately needy people each day in the townships close to the Trade plus Aid® Design Studio in Johannesburg. From 2003 Trade plus Aid® will invest £72,906 to fund the distribution of 1,185,600 meals to the poorest of the poor and to local school children from impoverished families.
• Trade plus Aid® also assisted Oxfam to extend its work in communities devastated by HIV/AIDS with a donation of £13,000 to employ and train four social workers to specialise in counselling rape victims in Pietermaritzburg.
• In addition, Charlotte di Vita was invited to become a Goodwill Ambassador for the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund and pledged to donate a minimum of £15,000 to the NMCF over the three years. These funds have been invested in projects to help the children of the townships in and around Johannesburg, in line with the Trade plus Aid® Design Studio's Good Neighbour policy.
• In Zambia, as well as continuing its long term commitment to The Kaloko Trust of £21,450 over five years to contribute to school fees, the Trade plus Aid® charitable trust has donated £15,000 to the Environmental Investigation Agency to support the fight against elephant poaching in and around South Luangwa National Park.
• In the Sudan, Trade plus Aid® has donated £26,000 to the Intermediate Technology Development Group so that they can introduce water-harvesting technologies to assist the people of drought-afflicted Northern Darfur. In addition, the EU has committed to match the Trade plus Aid donation 3:1 which means that a total of £104,000 will be made available to ITDG.
