After a long search, we have found a new location for the women of Soufra Catering in the Burj el Barajneh refugee camp. For the purchase and renovation of the building we now need a total of 85'000 Swiss Francs. In addition to a larger kitchen, there is also space for a cafeteria, which will become the first meeting place for women in the camp. Please help us to offer the refugee women in Beirut the urgently needed perspective.

We want to provide water to the people that need it the most starting with the Wayuu Colombian indigenous communities. We propose a portable water desalination unit powered with solar energy. To begin, we'll build and field test the prototype. Our main objective is to become a sustainable organization that produces this unit massively and affordably. This to ensure that we can supply as many units as possible for the communities in need.

In short This project supports the Wayuu, an indigenous community in Columbia. We aim to provide at least 100 households with solar lamps and solar panels. We focus on women, since they are the care taker in this indigenous society. Women are key This project focuses on Wayuu women, because they are the main providers for their families, they raise the children, and take care of the environment. Wayuu society is matrilineal, which means that duties, responsibilities and possessions are inherited following the female lineage. Plea At Mama Tierra, we need your support to help us turn the wish of the Wayuu, to have light and electricity, into reality: to have access to basic comfort thanks to electricity. Our goal is to provide a hundred households with power produced by solar panels. The more money we can raise, the more families we can reach and help. In exchange for your support we offer attractive goodies. Thank you very much for your support and helping us to bring light into darkness.

Hi there, Thank you for taking your time to listen to my story. My name is Karin and that's my son Elias. I'm very sick. I have an Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), it is incurable and results in a relatively short time to death, usually within 3-5 years. 2,5 years ago I was on Hawaii, Big Island. That was the best time of my life, because this place is in my soul, the people I got to know there, the nature, the swimming with the wild dolphins and the whole way of life. The high energy of this Island brought me to my own inner beauty, to happiness, holistic and peace. I do not have much time and my dearest wish is to once again be able to experience Hawaii, preferably with my son Elias, because I need support, I am weak and can not walk well and our common time is limited... The illness broke out before 2 years and I'm unable to work since half an year and therefore I have no money to fulfill this deep desire. That's why I am in need of your support and maybe like that I will still be able to reach my last wish. I thank you for reading, for your interest and maybe for your help! THANK YOU! Love and blessings for you!

We want to provide a transitory, comprehensive home with all necessary services and support programmes for up to 15 unaccompanied, most vulnerable refugee and migrant children under the age of 15, who need special care and support that can’t be provided in the large collective centres or children who live currently on the streets. These children are mostly orphans or half-orphans which fled alone. With this Crowdfunding we finance the acquisition and renovation of the house in Loznica, Serbia. Every donation is so valuable for us and brings us a step forward to realise this project. Thank you from the bottom of our heart for your support.

OpenMindCenter is the house für Consciousness, Development and Culture in the heart of Zurich. It stands for the culture of change and is a place for co-creation and community, being and meeting for openminded people, young explorers and Cultural-Creatives.

More rooms in various sizes offer space for workshops, Coaching, Meditation, Yoga and other movement techniques. The investment-phase has started. We are focusing our engagement on a building we found in a central place in Zurich, where from April 2014 four floors will be available. The calculations for the rent will come in around end of June. We need a lot of financial resources and the Crowdfunding is just a start for it. To start the establishment of the company, pay a small salary to the leading team and as depot for the rent, we are looking for small and bigger donations and we will give you some goodies in exchange. Some of the team members have still some income from other jobs. All the raised money will be hold on an account at the Swiss Alternative Bank and will be set free as we need it.

Hello Jullay ! In Zanskar, in the Indian Himalayas, 14’000 people are isolated from the rest of India for as long as 5 to 7 consecutive winter months due to heavy snowfalls blocking the few road accesses through mountain passes. There is no rescue service in case of emergency or critical medical condition. This is where our project fits in. We plan to train a team of 8 young Zanskari in rescue and emergency medicine, including basic support in birth delivy and postnatal care, and starting from March 2018.

"You can’t imagine what cancer does to you. That’s why, I strive every day to give affected women hope and courage. I know, what it means, and I know, what those women need.

Janvier was 11 years old during the genocide in Rwanda. She was paralysed from neck and down. Since then, for 20 years, she has barely been outside. I want to get her a specialised bed so that she can come outside when she wants to. An exhibition showing the topic as well as other related topics are on display at Photobastei in Zurich between December 10th and 27th.
