Welcome to Tools for Self Reliance
For nearly 30 years Tools for Self Reliance has helped to relieve poverty in Africa by supporting small businesses and by raising awareness in the UK. With the help of hundreds of dedicated volunteers in the UK we fund business skills and other training projects in six countries in Africa. And each year we put tens of thousands of refurbished tools and sewing machines into the hands of people who really need them. We couldn’t do any of this without you!
