Volunteerism
The cornerstone of our organization are 1.950 active
volunteers who are contributing substantially in continuing
our work.
Our volunteers are active nationwide in all areas of our work
and cover basic needs based on their professional
background as well as their training on our actions.
Transparency & Management Resources
• The invaluable work of our organization is exclusively based on
donations and sponsorships – monetary or in-kind – provided by
companies that contribute in covering the countless needs of the
children that we support.
• We receive less than 3% of state funding
• Our financial results are reviewed by Ernst & Young
• According to the financial results of previous years only 10% of our
revenues covers administrative needs. In other words, in each 1
euro donation to our organization 90 cents go directly for our
main cause.
• With due respect to every offer and with the aim to further
increase our transparency and credibility we issued a social
responsibility and sustainable development report for 2011. This
report is only 1 out of 10 similar reports issued by NGO’s in Europe,
having been verified by an independent company.
