Would you like to become an educational sponsor?

As you can see from the projects in Okombahe, the basic needs (food and education) of the poorer rural population around Okombahe are very important to us.

In recent years, we've realized that we can't end educational support with the completion of school. Disadvantaged students, in particular, who often fail to complete their schooling or only achieve poor results, need at least one to two years of training, usually in a skilled trade, to have a realistic chance of earning their own living.

But education costs money in Namibia, and only if parents or relatives can pay for it do these young people even have the opportunity to start an education.
How much does a one-year training course cost?
One one-year training at a school, e.g. at COSDEC, costs approx. 800,-€ and the Cost of living (Accommodation, food, transport, ...) once again monthly approx. 80,-€ per young person.
This amounts to a total of approximately €1,760 per year or approximately €147 per month.
As an association, we can only cover this if you take on a (partial) sponsorship for a young person for a year.
With such a (partial) sponsorship, you will receive a personal update from "your" trainee two to three times a year and there is also the opportunity to get in touch with the young person beyond that.
