Over the last year, Tunisia has given me a lot – most importantly, a home and a lot of happiness. Naturally, I feel that it’s time to give back and here are my top suggestions on how to do that!
1. Support Samari Consulting’s charity football tournament
On October 22nd in Gammarth, Tunis-based headhunting & coaching company Samari Consulting will hold a charity football tournament.
A total of eight company teams are waiting for you to support them… And so are the kids at the Zaouit Chafai school about 10 km from Thala, which will benefit from the money being raised at the tournament.

2. Help keeping Tunisia clean
A lot has been said about the waste situation in Tunis. Feel like doing something about it? Become part of Tunisie Recyclage, a volunteer initiative throwing trash parties and recycling like real pros!

3. Get rid of those millimes
Many of us keep them in a jar somewhere around our house or just collect them in our wallets until it’s too heavy to carry around: Millimes coins, or “pieces jaunes”.
How about getting rid of the extra wallet weight and doing a good deed at the same time? Look out for the International Women’s Group’s initiative or simply distribute jars filled with millimes to those in need yourself.
4. Buy a beautiful carpet from Aatik
Batik is not only selling beautiful traditional carpets featuring vibrant colours and exceptional designs, but it is also helping to keep Tunisian tradition alive and supporting women leaders and entrepreneurship at the same time.
