Dear friends and donators!

„Sending a girl to school means forming a family and what applies to families also applies to communities and in the end to the entire nation.“
(Kofi Annan, former UN Secretary General)

Not only as work slaves, women are having a hard time in India. Often, they are considered less worth than men, get less food, have to work harder, even at younger ages, are humiliated and neglected. This is a big wrong: especially well educated women are a chance for a better world where everyone benefits and they also raise and shape the next generation.

Thanks to your donations, many kids, teenagers, and families were supported over the last year. They were able to finish school, achieved an academic degree, or were trained to become a beautician. This provides them with the chance to work for a fair wage to take care of themselves and their families.

Through your willingness to donate, you put trust into this foundation which honors us and the work done. We want to thank you from the depths of our hearts!

We wish you a restful festive period, a Merry Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year!

Dear friends and donators!

Education is on of the most important steps towards a world without hunger and poverty.

Observation as well as experience has shown that education of women grows a country’s wealth. Thus, if women get the same chances as men, the entire country profits.

Women that go to school get married later. They learn that they have the same rights and develop self-confidence. Additionally, children of educated women have a bigger chance of growing up healthy. With every successfully completed school year or training, the income of a woman increases. Later on, they invest a bigger part of their earnings for the well-being of their own family and the education of their children.

This is the reason why the Family Posielek Foundation cares about education wholeheartedly, especially for women in India where they are still oppressed and kept from developing.

Thanks to your donations, many children, teenager, and families were accompanied and supported last year. We express our deepest gratitude to you! Your willingness to donate pays tribute to our foundation and the work. The projects are shown on our website.

We wish you a Merry Christmas and good start for 2018!

Dear friends and donators!

This year was full of great and pleasant events for the Posielek Foundation.

In March, the Posielek Family joined by friends who were keen to experience the country and the ground work of the foundation, paid a visit to numerous projects in India. In Hyderabad and Vijayawada we reconnected with known faces and had the pleasure to get to know new pupils and students. For us it is a joy to look those young people into the eyes and learn about the dreams and objectives they have for their life. The discussions with the foundation staff and voluntaries enlightened us, while their spirit and drive to change people’s life for the better is a huge inspiration for us.

Pictures and more insight of our journey are published here on our new homepage where you can also see our new logo. This logo will help us to increase our brand recognition.

This year, some of our students have graduated with success. We are happy to see a lot of them supporting the new joiners by sharing their experiences with them. By contributing part of their income they help to make our foundation self-sustained and to multiply its reach via an increasing amount of new scholarchips.

On top, thanks to your donations, we were able extend our education program to more pupils and students. A big and heartfelt THANK YOU to you!

We wish you a merry Christmas and a blessed new start for 2016!
