With empowering local communities at the heart of their mission, Tzedek is a U.K.-based charity working to alleviate extreme global poverty while engaging the UK community in their own sense of social responsibility. Founded nearly 30 years ago, this organization sourced its namesake from Hebrew -Tzedek - meaning justice. We spoke with their CEO, Kira Blumer, and International Development and Education Manager, Leanne Baker, about their cause.
