Help build a future for women and families in Mutonguni.

With €202,000, we will support 30 women and their families with water, practical training and interest-free microcredit. They will produce food and earn an income for their households, while also selling locally. Change begins with 30 women, with the ambition that more people will benefit over time.

Four building blocks, three years of guidance

  • Water and irrigation

    It starts with water investigations. Growing and livestock begin only once there is enough water capacity.

  • Knowledge and training

    Producing food, tracking costs and income, selling, and healthy eating: varied, safely prepared and wise about salt, sugar and fat.

  • Interest-free microcredit in kind

    Seeds, livestock and beehives for vegetables, poultry, goats and bees. Repaid credit stays in a community fund for new participants.

  • The Community Shop

    Selling together makes healthy, varied food more available and affordable in Mutonguni and the surrounding area.

From Mutonguni to the Netherlands, and back

Two sisters, one grandmother and a promise to pass opportunities on

Vivian was twelve and Valentine eight when they moved to the Netherlands. Their grandmother's values came with them. Now they are returning to pass on what they received.

“She taught us that the opportunities you receive can be passed on.”
