In 2008, we started to support children and young people in Haiti and launched the campaign SCHOOLS FOR HAITI. In the meantime, thanks to the help of private donors, and also through the commitment of schoolchildren in Europe, around 600 Haitian children from the disadvantaged quarters of Port-au-Prince can attend school every day and learn to read, write and do arithmetic.
After four successful years, the association PEN PAPER PEACE e.V. was founded in 2011 to be able to work even more actively and to further expand the network between European and Haitian schools.
Since 2019 we have been expanding our projects worldwide. For example, we now also support the day care center "Pasos Pequeñitos" (in English "Small Steps") and thus give young single mothers the opportunity to finish their education while the children are cared for free of charge in a safe and loving environment.
In 2020, we started supporting the farmschool and boarding school Baumgartsbrunn in Namibia. 200 children attend the school, which was threatened to be shut down, since the hostel facilities urgently needed a renovation.
