Children's horz, on our web-page you see all our figures and projects.
Our goal is for the people we help to have new perspectives and be able to shape their lives better. We came closer to our objectives again last year: We give our partners more autonomy with project loans, and their programs are even more focused on providing the people in Togo with good, practical training, enabling them to carry out their activities independently and with more success. Our main goals We support small, concrete grassroots projects that have immediate effects, provide economic impulses, and promote the community. We make a realistic contribution to responsible and solidarity-based action. So that the people we help can soon stand on their own feet.
