Practical Action
Practical Presents are unusual and thoughtful gifts that can make a friend or loved one smile and help transform the lives of the world's poorest people at the same time.
Practical Presents are brought to you by Practical Action, an international development charity with a difference.
We work together with some of the world’s poorest women, men and children, helping to alleviate poverty in the developing world through the innovative use of technology.
Practical Action believe that the right idea, however small, can change lives.
