Angel Mule

ANGEL MULE - Journeys that make a difference

THE PROBLEM:

There are currently millions of non profit projects in developing countries who are in urgent need of supplies. 

OUR SOLUTION:

Angel Mule uses travellers to deliver urgently needed supplies to non profits who then reward them with fun, cultural experiences.

WHY IT'S A BIG OPPORTUNITY:

• There are currently 40,000 internationally operating NGO's in the world, when you break this down to small non profit projects there are over 3,000,000 in India alone.
• There are over 1 billion journeys taken globally each year. On these journey's people are constantly searching for ways to make a difference but are usually faced with the choice between a holiday or committing to a volunteer programme. 

We fit perfectly between the two.

Angel Mule connects those with a NEED to those who can GIVE and DELIVER. We want to connect travellers directly with grass roots projects. Our Angel Mules will deliver urgently needed supplies like books, clothing, food & more directly to where they are needed most. 

As part of our site we also want to build in a peer to peer lending platform where people who may not be in a position to travel can directly help non profits by sponsoring an Angel Mule to purchase supplies for a project on their travels.

THE BENEFITS OF ANGEL MULE:

• No red tape - we connect travellers directly with those in need
• Completely transparent - people can see first hand the difference their contribution can make
• No high volunteer fees & no waste of donor funds - donations go directly to where they are needed most
• We offer a tangible, mutually beneficial relationship between donor & project
• We benefit local economies by encouraging Angel Mule's to purchase goods in-country
• We will provide a platform where non profits can showcase their work
• We utilise existing journeys so we're super green!

OUR VISION FOR THE FUTURE:

We want to start small & grow BIG! We see three main growth areas for Angel Mule:

• We want to partner with large multi-nationals who can donate their excess stock that can be distributed to non profits
• We want to partner with large transport companies (airlines, shipping companies) so that we can utlise their excess space for delivering bulk supplies
• We want to become a key resource in disaster relief by connecting non profits directly with a network those who can give resources & deliver them quickly

TO SUMMARISE:

At Angel Mule we're passionate about helping non profits in developing countries. We're also passionate about enhancing travellers experiences & enabling them to give back to the communities they visit. Angel Mule will provide a trusted, transparent and interactive platform where people can see first hand the difference their journeys can make!
