About us

150 association members work voluntarily in our association to help people in need!
By collecting and processing well-preserved economic goods, needy people who cannot afford to buy them new, give them a second life and at the same time we help our environment by protecting them from being scrapped.
In doing so, helping disabled people in developing countries - where there is no social help from government - is our greatest concern! In Karlsruhe/Germany we run a wheelchair repair workshop with two former long-term unemployed and volunteer helpers. The handicapped aids that are collected are cleaned, repaired if necessary and sent in sea containers or overland trucks to 27 developing countries with the support of Engagement Global (BMZ). However, we have to finance € 7,500 a month with donations for labor, rental and spare parts costs. We urgently need more sponsors for this!
With donations and support from BMZ we are also building schools, a clinic, irrigation, etc. in Africa.
