The Beneficiaries: 8 Essential Charities

The Millennium Development Ride is proud to support 8 of the most influential non-governmental organizations fighting poverty across the world. All funds donated to the Millennium Development Ride support the work of these organizations. Collectively operating in over 90 developing countries across the world—including all 24 nations with the lowest human development ranking—these organizations directly target the Millennium Development Goals and improve the lives of millions of people each year. They are:

CARE

CHF

Concern Worldwide

Global Network for Neglected Tropical Diseases

Mercy Corps

Millennium Promise

Partners in Health

Save the Children

These 8 Millennium Development Ride partner organizations were selected from an exhaustive review of nearly 200 international non-profit organizations working in health and development. The selection process involved a detailed review of organizations’ websites, annual reports, and available tax forms, as well as a review of professional charity evaluations by Charity Navigator and GuideStar. We chose our partner organizations based on their profound expertise working in developing settings, their use of best-practice methodology and commitment to process improvement, their leadership in collaboration, their strength in international advocacy and policy decisions, their worldwide scope, and their transparent and responsible fiscal management.

Simply put, the Millennium Development Ride partner organizations have learned the “tricks of the trade” and have solid relationships with the people and governments they serve. In short, they do great work, do it all over the world, and do it in the most efficient and effective way possible. We like giving to work like this, and we hope you do too! Donate to the important development work of these 8 partner organizations.
