2012 STARS Impact Awards

The STARS Foundation (STARS) improves the lives of disadvantaged children around the world by supporting organisations which meet their health, education and protection needs. STARS believes that effective and well-run local NGOs are best placed to respond to the needs of those they serve.

Founded by the Dabbagh Group in 2001 and based in London, STARS has provided grants to non-profit making organisations working with disadvantaged children and in 2007 launched the STARS Impact Awards. Each year, the STARS Impact Awards identify and support local organisations that achieve excellence in the provision of services to disadvantaged children and that demonstrate effective management practices.
