Areas of action

Access to education

School provides the opportunity to learn the basics and encourages an awareness of culture which is also very important. That is why the We Act For Kids Action Fund supports several projects that enable disadvantaged children to go to school and develop their talents:

Since 2014 1500 children have attended school in Dhaka, Bangladesh with Grameen Shikkha from first grade right through secondary education.

Developing the parent/child bond with Ensemble pour l’Education for a caring education and thanks to awareness workshops offered to 1,300 families in Madagascar with Koloina.

Developing children’s commitment and knowledge of their rights with ASMAE – Association Sœur Emmanuelle and projet imagine.

Inclusivity for mothers

At any point in their lives, families and their children can find themselves feeling isolated and helpless. The We Act For Kids Action Fund creates and finances projects for the inclusion of families through the training and employment of mothers for a better life:

Training and promoting professional inclusion for vulnerable mothers in Roubaix with Amitié Partage, in Madagascar with Tohana (with the NGO Atia) and in Bangladesh with Hope

Methods of action

Social business

Social business is a new form of economy based on values, a willingness to act to implement them and a sound economic logic. The company must be financially self-sufficient and profits are reinvested to address social problems.

  • Projects in France, Madagascar and Bangladesh enabling mothers to receive training (sewing, English, computers)
  • Organisation of off- and online community-focused private sales : Access to new clothes and toys at greatly reduced prices for families in difficulty.

Community-based operations

Community-based operations are regularly organised with partner brands: mini donations, product sharing, social business products to finance projects for the most vulnerable children.

Solidarity actions organised by IDKIDS employees:

  • volunteering for the community-based sales
  • cake sales
  • organisation of a parade for children

250 IDKIDS employees volunteered to support the actions of the We Act For Kids Action Fund.
