Proyecto Held se fundó en 2007. En todo el mundo, millones de niños viven por debajo del umbral de la pobreza, y una gran parte de ellos son huérfanos. Casi dos tercios de estos niños viven en África y el sur de Asia. Los adultos en los países en desarrollo también enfrentan una gran pobreza y tienen que vivir con menos de 2 dólares al día. Al viajar por estos países, te encuentras con esta pobreza y necesidad en lugares como India y África literalmente ante tus ojos. Pero también en Kosovo, donde la guerra de los Balcanes ha dejado una gran huella, ya que muchos hombres murieron y las familias crecieron sin ingresos.
La identidad de Proyecto Held es "Detenerse por el uno". Cada niño, cada individuo merece no vivir en la pobreza o en el miedo, sino construir su futuro y mejorar su bienestar. Lamentablemente, la realidad es diferente. No puedes elegir dónde naces. Ya sea en una casa cálida con todas las comodidades a mano, o en una zona de guerra, pobreza extrema o entorno inseguro, te desarrollarás y crecerás donde naciste.
Al viajar regularmente a nuestros proyectos con un equipo, se crea una hermandad, una relación y confianza mutua, de modo que cuando hay necesidad, se puede actuar rápidamente.
La pobreza a menudo hace que los niños caigan entre las grietas y pierdan la esperanza de un futuro prometedor. Se quedan atrapados en la supervivencia y pierden su infancia a una edad temprana. Las consecuencias de todo esto pueden ser la prostitución, la trata de personas, la mendicidad, etc. Crecer sin un hogar y una base segura deja al niño dañado para el futuro.
Nuestro objetivo es ayudar a tantos niños como sea posible a salir de su situación desesperada y darles la oportunidad de desarrollarse en un entorno seguro y de confianza. Hacemos esto proporcionando cuatro pilares indispensables a través del patrocinio.
Queremos luchar por estos niños. Esto puede hacerse mediante el patrocinio. Cuando un niño es patrocinado, puede ir a la escuela, vivir en un entorno seguro y construir su futuro. Además, estamos estrechamente involucrados en nuestros proyectos y hay líneas de comunicación cortas que aseguran que el cuidado de estos niños sea compartido.
