1,200 euros raised for a project in Cameroon
That is the first earmarked round of funding through ARIS. The project is ready to start. It is not a large amount : it is proof that the chain works end to end.
We help project leaders and impact-driven associations find the money to wire a classroom, equip a canteen, buy supplies or launch a training course. And we make them visible to each other : that is what we mean by association synergy.
Many associations do solid work and stay invisible, each in its own corner, chasing the same funding. Bringing them together means projects get discovered and funded that would never have crossed paths, and the project leaders end up helping each other.
ARIS is our submission and tracking tool, not a showcase and not a fund : the association behind a need submits it there, then RING takes over the file, seeks funding from companies and individuals, in Africa as well as in Europe, and reports back.
The association behind it submits it on ARIS. We look at who is behind it, for how long, what already exists on the ground, and exactly what the money would pay for. A project with no identified leader does not get past this stage.
We rewrite it in the format funders recognise, with a costed need, item by item, then we present it to funders. A funder sees what they are paying for : ten desks, one solar panel, one month of canteen meals.
The money goes to the chosen item, and the project leader accounts for how it was spent. No cash payment without supporting documents.
Photos, invoices, progress. The funder knows what their money produced, and other associations see what worked.
We are at the beginning, and we prefer saying so to inflating a showcase.

Making bio-sourced charcoal and eco-friendly paving stones. Two activities that use local waste, sell locally, and need no imported supply chain.
With ENEDIS, signed in 2025 : equipment refurbished, resold at an affordable price to students, and the proceeds reinvested in projects in the Far North of Cameroon.
None of them involves an invoice from RING : the association sells nothing and takes no commission on a donation.
A one-off or regular donation to the association, or direct funding of a published project.
