Taking Pictures, Changing Lives in 2024

You may already know who we are: Taking Pictures, Changing Lives. A global team of filmmakers and photographers. We document the work of charities who are supporting some of the communities most affected by poverty around the world.

We need your help in 2024 to raise £15,000 by Friday 3rd May to continue helping these charities raise awareness and funds for life-changing work.

We invite you to watch this short video of footage captured by our global team that tells our story. The voices you hear are some of our photographers and filmmakers sharing their heart for helping others. 

Donate online

The simplest way to give is through Donorbox, who we trust to handle online donations. You can make one-off donations or setup a monthly payment using the form on this page. Please tick the Gift Aid declaration if you are a UK taxpayer, then we can then claim the tax back, adding 25% to the amount of your gift.

When you donate to our campaign you are helping to change lives around the world.

Do you know what makes us unique?

There are two main reasons why we are different from other creative agencies…  

  1. We fundraise to cover our own costs so that we can gift our time, skills and resources to charities who don’t have marketing budgets to afford professional photographers. 

  2. We believe it’s important to work with local photographers to capture images of charities working in their own countries and communities. Prioritising minimal travel, promoting local talent and making sure our funds stretch as far as possible.
