Our approach is based on the following principles:
– Most attention is given to the most needy
– Projects should support the independence instead of the dependence of people
– We preferably support measures with a long time effect
– We only continue projects that have proven to be successful
– We are open for short time interventions that can have a long term positive effect
– Choices are made by representatives of the local communities
– If possible the local economy should profit from our activities
– Local people are practically involved As much as possible in the realisation of projects
– Donations should have effect in practice as soon as possible
– Donors are seen as partners and are therefore, at least monthly, informed and as much as possible involved in development
– Donations are seen as property of the donor and are therefore only spent with great responsibility
– Transparency, integrity, compassion are keywords as well in financial as practical affairs.
