Use of funds

How your euro is used

All members in Germany work on a voluntary basis. That is why by far the largest share of your donation arrives directly in Mianzini (Arusha). These examples show what it becomes.

  • €35 a month

    School for one child

    This is exactly one sponsorship: school fees, uniform and supplies for one child - accompanied for a whole year.

  • €10 a month

    Meals & care

    Warm meals and care in our daycare group, so the youngest are looked after while their mothers work.

  • €100 once

    Sewing & creative project

    Fabric, thread and materials for the women's group - they turn it into products that create income again in our shop.

  • Administration

    Deliberately small

    Administrative costs only arise from bank fees, postage, association administration and payment fees - no salaries from donations.

You can find the exact amounts per financial year on our transparency page.

How we work with your donation

  • The board and all members in Germany work on a voluntary basis - no salaries are paid from donations.
  • Administrative costs mainly arise from bank fees, postage, association administration and payment fees.
  • On the ground in Arusha, teachers, caregivers and seamstresses are paid fairly - that is project work, not administration.
  • As a registered non-profit association we are happy to issue you a donation receipt on request.
