Supporting children in need
Supporting children in need all around the world is a great part of GivingTales and is our finest ambition. Therefore, we are committed to charities that work in this field, and in practice, means that we annually donate 30% of profits to selected NGOs.
Helping children in need is a big part of what we stand for, and is the foundation that Givingtales is built upon. In loving memory of Sir Roger Moore and his remarkable work with children all around the world. Stars from England, Denmark and China have chosen to be part of the GivingTales family, and hereby promote children's living standards where it is needed the most.
By purchasing a fairytale, you can support children in need, improve their lives, and build a safer world for the children of the future.
Magical and adventurous greetings,
The GivingTales family
