PROJECTS

We believe that there are so many good projects which already exist, where good people are investing time and passion but are just short of financial resources, that we would prefer to support existing projects rather than creating new ones. One by one we will identify such projects, get to know them, build relationships with them and support them to whatever extent our resources allow. Our goal is to establish long-term relationships, which result in long-term benefits in accordance with our mission.
