Supporting ActionAid – Changing the World with Women and Girls
At Diamond Star Experience, we are proud to support ActionAid, a global charity dedicated to empowering women and girls living in poverty. Through their inspiring work, ActionAid is helping build a more just and equal world by ending violence, challenging poverty, and ensuring that women and girls everywhere can shape the future they deserve.
Why We Support ActionAid
ActionAid works alongside communities across the world to address the deep-rooted issues that keep women and girls in poverty. Their locally-led approach focuses on long-term, sustainable change and puts the rights of women and girls at the centre of everything they do.
Sponsor a Child – Change a Life
At ActionAid, we believe every child deserves the chance to thrive.
By sponsoring a child, you’ll help provide essentials like food, education, and healthcare – giving a girl or boy in need the opportunity for a brighter future.
As their only sponsor, you’ll build a special bond. You'll receive photos, handwritten messages, and regular updates from their community, showing the real impact of your support.
You can choose where your sponsorship goes, or let our team match you with a child in one of the communities most in need.
It only takes a few minutes to become a child sponsor – but the difference you make will last a lifetime.
What Happens When You Become a Child Sponsor?
The moment you sign up, your journey begins.
We’ll send you a welcome pack with a photo of the child you’re sponsoring and a few details about their life and community. From there, a truly special connection begins to grow.
Twice a year, you’ll receive handwritten messages from the child – letters, drawings, or postcards – sharing their experiences, hopes, and dreams. You’ll also receive updates from our local staff on how your support is making a difference in their life and community.
You’re welcome to write back too – many sponsors find it deeply rewarding to build that personal connection. Over time, you’ll receive new photos marking special milestones, so you can witness the child you sponsor grow, learn, and thrive.

Women's and Girls' Rights
The denial of women's and girls' rights is one of the leading causes of poverty and inequality. ActionAid helps ensure that women and girls are safe, heard, and able to lead. From securing land rights to challenging injustice, their work supports women in claiming their full potential.
Ending Violence Against Women and Girls
Violence affects around one in three women and girls globally. This includes child marriage, female genital mutilation, sexual exploitation, and domestic abuse. ActionAid works within communities to prevent violence, support survivors, and create environments where women and girls can live free from fear.
Economic Empowerment
Women in developing countries are often in low-paid, insecure work, with limited access to land, loans, and equal pay. ActionAid helps women gain access to safe jobs, living wages, and social protections such as maternity leave. By reducing the burden of unpaid domestic work, they give women the opportunity to take control of their own lives.
Girls’ Education
Education is one of the most powerful tools for change. Educating girls improves health, reduces poverty, delays early marriage, and strengthens communities. Yet millions of girls are still out of school. ActionAid works to provide quality, inclusive education and helps girls overcome the barriers that prevent them from learning.
Together, we can help create lasting change.
