Description
1) Objective
Each year the UNWG financially supports many children’s charities in Austria and the developing world. This project-based programme is organised for the sole purpose of benefitting children in need. The UNWG charity programme assists abused children, those having restricted access to education, children with serious health problems, children having no access to clean drinking water, victims of calamity or catastrophe, orphans, children with special needs or children suffering from extreme poverty or starvation. Projects must benefit children no older than 18 (21 if disabled), or mother and child care programmes.
The services of the organisation must be available to all children without discrimination, regardless of race, gender, ethnic origin or religion. Projects must be sustainable and have continuation plans. Requests should address basic needs in health, education, water and shelter, focusing on long term assistance (e.g. clean water supply, sanitation facilities, school construction or repair, classroom furniture, educational or vocational materials/equipment, medical equipment, special needs support.)
2) Eligibility
