Our funding is targeted at the following areas:

 

  • Basic existential needs (orphan­age, children’s village, micro­credits).

  • Healthcare (prenatal care, mid­wifery, supplies of visual aids, cataract surgeries, clean drinking water, 3D printed protheses).

  • Education (kindergarten and school buildings, scholarships, vocational and academic edu­cation projects, computer lab, bikes for pupils).

  • Measures to preserve cultural identity and to gain equal oppor­tunities (rehabilitation of child prostitutes, awareness campaign against human trafficking, radio station).

The board comprises the film­makers Oliver Herbrich and Peter Heller. While Oliver Herbrich has retired from active film work, Peter Heller continues to work in this field and reports regularly on matters re­lat­­ing to development cooperation. They have travelled through many so-called "third world" countries and are familiar with local living conditions.

 

As independent producers and businessmen, they are also com­mitted to project management and results. They are pleased to be able to contribute their knowledge and experience to the projects. The Board members work in an hono­rary capacity.
