Many people use the Christmas season to reflect on the things that are important to them. Often these are the people who are close to them. However, many people also become aware at this time that there are some people who are less fortunate and compassion increases. For example, people are more likely to give a euro to a beggar on the side of the road or donate a few old toys to the local children's home.
Help that arrives
Bread for the WorldNot only large foundations, but jordan number dataset also we as a company are aware of our social responsibility. Therefore, as in the past, we have decided to invest the planned budget for Christmas gifts for our customers and partners in a social project with a donation. Because there are enough projects and opportunities where the money is needed much more urgently than the fifth Advent calendar on the desk.
The focus of our donation of 1,500 euros this year is on education. The money goes to Bread for the World, the development organization of the Protestant Church. With this we support the School Without Borders project in Zimbabwe.

School without Borders is an educational support project for children with disabilities. In African countries in particular, the educational crisis is still very great, as there are often not enough schools and teachers. In addition, many families cannot afford school and teaching materials, or the children are needed to do work at home. The situation is even more difficult for children with physical or mental disabilities. They often have no chance of getting an education. To change this, Bread for the World supports the Jairos Jiri Association, for example. This is considered a pioneer in the field of inclusion throughout Zimbabwe. Children, whether with or without disabilities, are given the opportunity to learn together. This gave the deaf Milton, for example, the chance to learn sign language in addition to reading and writing, and thus finally be able to communicate properly. For Milton, this was the prerequisite for gaining enough self-confidence and finding friends to play with. This means that the boy can now fully participate in social life and have a fulfilling childhood.
If you think beyond childhood, these children also have a real chance on the job market and can contribute to a lasting improvement in the economic situation of their country. Therefore, donations in this area do not just support an individual, but the whole of society. An investment in education is always an investment in the future.
