Like all children in the world, our children have dreams, wishes and goals. We want to give all our children a good education after school.
We are looking for people who are willing to support our school leavers at this important stage in their lives - whether it is for a degree course, a technical college or practical vocational training. The costs vary depending on the training path.
With a sponsorship, you enable a young person to build an independent future through their own efforts.
The foundation organizes various events every year to generate funds for our projects. For example, a small restaurant at the Ägeri-Märcht, a sponsored run for children and adults or a charity concert. For such events, we are looking for "friends of the foundation" to support us.
My time at the "Home of Joy" children's home in Uganda was a formative and enriching experience. During my stay, I was not only able to make a direct contribution to the children's everyday lives, but also gain valuable insights into a different culture and way of life.
I helped look after the children, assisted with everyday tasks and organized playful and creative activities. I was particularly impressed by the warmth and joie de vivre of the children and the commitment of the staff. On site, I experienced a caring and supportive environment in which solidarity and mutual appreciation were tangible.
This experience broadened my view of the world and showed me how important interpersonal commitment is. I am very grateful for my time at the "Home of Joy" - it made me grow personally and I will always remember it.
