School Sponsorships

For over 20 years, we have been arranging school sponsorships for children in the mountain villages, enabling school attendance for hundreds of children. With €50 per year, a girl or boy can attend the village school, and with €200 per year, they can attend a higher school.

We ensure that the poorest families benefit most from sponsorship.

From the very beginning, we consciously chose to avoid personal school sponsorships, primarily for reasons of organisation, but we also want to prevent inequalities arising through individual gifts – often donated with the best of intentions – that could lead to disappointment among the other school children.

Himalaya-Karakorum e.V.

Der als gemeinnützig anerkannte Verein unterstützt Menschen, die unter schwierigen Bedingungen in den Bergen des Himalaya und Karakorum leben, am Rand der Siedlungsgrenze und immer auch am Rand der Existenzgrenze. Den Dorfbewohnern soll das Überleben in ihrer angestammten Heimat erleichtert werden, und zwar nach dem Prinzip der Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe. Vorrangiges Ziel ist es, dass unsere Hilfe in absehbarer Zeit nicht mehr nötig ist.
