Wow, that's impressive!

The estimate for the German donations are a bit too high though. Last
year was about 16,000 euro.

If you wonder what the children get for the money: We recently had two
students finish their university studies that we are proud of. One of
them is now a Doctor (still has to finish his practical year) and one a
registered lawyer. Less than twenty years ago they were hungry and
sleeping on a mud floor with only an old blanket...
