FairFight strives to make projects happen through collaborations. On our own, there is so little that we can achieve. It is thus in our best interest to work alongside existing organizations in the Netherlands, or in the countries we operate. The organizations that supported us through fundraising events and major donations can be found on our sponsors page. However, numerous other organizations provided us with connections or legal and logistical support, and those can be found in our partners page.
Additionally, we would like to thank all the individuals and families that decided to donate money or equipment to FairFight.
