About Us

Craafint is a 501(c) next-gen non-profit organization with Tax-exmpt based in Chicago, Illinois. Its registered office is at 444 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago, IL 60611, USA. Overseas offices are based in Buenos Aires, London and Tokyo.

We focus on assistance and support to local communities in developing countries. Our missions cover the following areas:

o    Fight against poverty

o    Sustainable development

o    Promotion of education

o    Improving access to health

o    Protection of the environment.

We look after the completion of any solidarity and proximity operation that might be directly or indirectly connected to these missions and do not affect the nature of our goals and objectives.

Our action is governed by the Millennium Development Declaration (MDGs) signed in September 2000 by 189 countries and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted in September 2015 and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that officially came in force on 1st January 2016.

For the next fifteen years, with these new goals that universally apply to all, countries will mobilize efforts to end all forms of poverty, fight inequalities and tackle climate change, while ensuring that no one is left behind.

The SDGs, also known as “Global Goals”, build on the success of the MDGs and aim to go further to end all forms of poverty. The new goals are unique in that they call for action by all countries, poor, rich and middle-income to promote prosperity while protecting the planet. They recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with strategies that build economic growth and addresses a range of social needs including education, health, social protection, and job opportunities, while tackling climate change and environmental protection.

The SDGs are not legally binding. Governments are expected to take ownership and establish national frameworks for the achievement of the 17 goals.  Countries have the primary responsibility for follow-up and review of the progress made in implementing the goals, which will require quality, accessible and timely data collection.
