About ANDHERI HILFE e.V.
In 1967 ANDHERI HILFE e.V. was founded in Bonn. In the beginning the main objective was to ensure the daily portion of rice for all the 400 orphans who lived in St. Catherine's Home in Andheri/India. In the following years ANDHERI HILFE developed continuously with Rosi Gollmann as first chairwoman. Soon the aim was no longer to fight symptoms as hunger or sickness, but to find out and approach the reasons: ANDHERI HILFE developed from the pure charitable help towards development cooperation based on partnership.
Currently we support about 80 projects in India and Bangladesh and reach around 1 million people. Our projects target the problems which are most urgent and implement solutions which have a sustainable impact. We always address the poorest and most disadvantaged people. All our projects aim to open new opportunities for the people so that they can develop their own skills and use them. Four major targets shape our work: to strengthen rights, to promote education, to faciliate health, to secure independence and to protect the environment and the climate.
