“Vamos Adelante” is financed solely from private donations from Europe and North America. The organisation is proud that only the absolutely necessary minimum of administrative costs are incurred and that close contact is maintained with the donors. The heart of “Vamos Adelante” is the local employees. They take care of the families in need of assistance. This includes the women who advise the families and schools on questions of health and hygiene, and check on the progress of the students. In addition, the organisation also employs some teachers in its school and helps independent schools get started. In the area of wellness, volunteer doctors support the work in its small clinic. Furthermore, younger people from the US and Europe work together on a voluntary basis in a variety of areas.
