What type of projects do we support? |
Solidarity and development |
In principle, the programme is open to all types of community-based projects that express solidarity and compassion with poor and marginalised people.
We aim to support projects that reach outwards in benefit of the local population, as an expression of our apostolate and charism. Project proposals will be considered positively when they include:
|
By solidarity, we mean collaborative projects that respond to short term, immediate basic needs of food, health care and housing repairs, including accessibility adjustments for disabled people.
By development, we mean projects that address longer term, social transformation through the empowerment, organisation and training of the participating beneficiaries and their local communities. Our partnersWe give preference to projects that are implemented through our own sisters, lay groups of associates known to our congregation and other sister organisations with whom we share a common vision and commitment of solidarity the poor.
