Resumo: The host organization is a charitable organisation, which supports artisans and communities in some of the poorest countries in the world by providing high quality refurbished hand tools and sewing machines. TFS has no waged staff and relies on the commitment of people who are involved and wish to become involved in our work.

The host organization has three basic aims:

To provide people, communities and projects with basic hand tools and sewing machines so that they may practice their skills and improve the quality of their own and their community's life. The tools enable the people who receive them to establish small co-operative and community businesses as well as provide training in vocational schools and opportunities for employment for disabled and women's groups.

To raise awareness throughout Northern Ireland (NI) about the issues of sustainable development within our own society as well as in the so-called “Third World”. These issues include the environment, waste and recycling, appropriate technology, self-reliance, sustainability and community development.

To provide opportunities for people in NI to participate in worthwhile and valuable work. The organization is particularly committed to working with all sections of the community in NI and to focus on providing sheltered placements for people with special needs and those normally excluded from being able to contribute to society in a positive way.
