About this project
Dirk Langenheim from Principito e.V. is responsible for this project
What is it about?
The non-profit institution Fundación Camphill Agualinda in Colombia, is committed to young and adult people with disabilities. People live, work and learn in an environment of mutual respect and equality.
Andrés, an 18-year-old Colombian with mental and physical disabilities would like to live there permanently. We are looking for support to fulfill his heart's desire: To live permanently in Agualinda in an environment he loves. Andrés is someone you just have to like. He infects everyone with his jokes and good humor. He especially loves to cook and bake and is very skilled at it.
We ask for your support.
Who needs help?
Andrés has been visiting Agualinda for several years and would like to live there permanently. He has a mental limitation and a progressive physical disability that, for example, severely limits his vision and makes it difficult to walk. Despite this, until the spring of 2020, he walked alone to and from the facility for an hour each way every day. However, since Agualinda had to move to another location due to the Covid-19 pandemic, he could no longer reach her.
Since the fall of 2021, we have reached our first goal and Andrés lives permanently at Agualinda below the week. He feels very comfortable, is an integral part of the community and it is exactly the environment he needs.
Why is help needed?
Andrés comes from a socially deprived family who cannot afford therapy, aids and permanent residence in Agualinda without support. Funding for his housing continues to be a major challenge. Principito e.V., has been able to cover part of the costs in recent months, Fundación Camphill Agualinda has paid the rest. Unfortunately, this is not enough for Andrés to stay permanently. Every euro we can raise is therefore a great help.
What is behind Agualinda and the Principito e.V.?
The Camphill Agualinda wants to offer people with physical and intellectual disabilities a good quality of life and enable them to participate as full citizens in social, cultural and economic activities. This is done through integration with the environment and the family. Life is celebrated every day. Charity and the joy of supporting others are always at the forefront.
Principito e.V. is committed to improving the living conditions of people with disabilities in Latin America. One of our founding members worked in Colombia in the Fundación Camphill Agualinda and founded the association with his family and friends. Through personal experience and direct contact on the ground, donations can be used purposefully for individual people and projects. Andrés is personally known to us and has grown close to our hearts.
