Alternative Gift - Vaihtoehtoinen Lahja


Hyvät Ystävät ja Yhteistyökumppanit

Tänä Jouluna käytimme joululahjoihinne tarkoitetut varat Vaihtoehtoisiin Lahjoihin. Antamalla lahjaksi ammatin tuemme naisten aseman parantamista kehitysmaissa.

Naiset ja tytöt ovat yhteiskunnallisen kehityksen hyödyntämätön voimavara. Naisten aseman ja toimeentulon parantaminen on keskeistä köyhyyden poistamisessa ja elintason parantamisessa. Tukemalla naisia, autamme myös heidän perheitään ja usein koko kyläyhteisöä.

Alternative Gift - Bringing joy to many

This year we have bought ethical gifts that helps people in developing countries. Finn Church Aid aims to change the world through actions for human dignity. We dream of a world where everybody can enjoy human rights and have the opportunity to live a dignified life.

This donation that has been made on your behalf helps us to make that dream come true.
