Little Smile Foundation

Mission

Together we make children’s lives more promising by supporting small-scale projects in developing countries.

Realised projects

In 2016-2017, we (as private persons) realised three school projects in Peru:

01. Educational institution Leoncio Prado, Karina, Chucuito, Puno, Peru

Educational institution Leoncio Prado, Karina, Chucuito, Puno, Peru – we provided school furniture and computers.

02. Educational institution Capi Cruz Grande, Uros Chulluni, Puno, Peru

Educational institution Capi Cruz Grande, Uros Chulluni, Puno, Peru – the school was rebuilt with our support after it was completely destroyed by fire, and we provided furniture and a motorboat to take the children – who live on reed islands that the people built themselves on Lake Titikaka – to school and bring them back safely every day.

03. Educational institution Capi Cruz Grande, Uros Tribuna, Puno, Peru

Educational institution Capi Cruz Grande, Uros Tribuna, Puno, Peru – we provided a motorboat to take the children – who live on reed islands that the people built themselves on Lake Titikaka – to school and bring them back safely every day.

In 2018-2019, Little Smile Foundation has realised four projects and disengaged in one:

04. Professional training for former child soldiers, Monrovia, Liberia

Professional training for former child soldiers, Monrovia, Liberia – despite the efforts of many, hardly any progress could be made, due to the severe drug addiction of the former child soldiers. Therefore, we decided with pain in our hearts to stop supporting this project financially.

05. Educational institution of Suana, Suana Island, Peru

Educational institution of Suana, Suana Island, Peru – we provided this school with furniture, computers and musical instruments.

06. Educational institution of Anapia, Anapia Island, Peru

Educational institution of Anapia, Anapia Island, Peru – we provided this school with a motorboat for safe school transport.

07. Healthcare institution ‘House of Peace’, Juli, Peru

Healthcare institution ‘House of Peace’, Juli, Peru – we provided this health care institution with the necessary equipment and materials to improve the quality of life and social integration of disabled people.

08. Educational institution of Conima, Conima, Moho, Puno, Peru

Educational institution of Conima, Conima, Moho, Puno, Peru – we provided this school with furniture and computers.

Children from Dhading, Nepal – we will make possible that 12 children, from families with no financial means, can go to school for the next three years.

10. St. Francis Training Institute, Mbarara, Uganda
