What we do
We are running our relief organization in different parts of this world but primarly we work in Ethiopia, DR Kongo, Brazil and Zambia.
BarnSamariten works mostly to give every child a possibility for a positive development in their lives, in an environment where their rights and not over shadowed. Our organization has a keen eye on girls’ equality since they belong in the most discriminated group in the world… being a girl.

In Ethiopia we are primarily focusing on education and to stregthen young girls to prevent Child marriage. A donation towards the selfhelp project is another way to greatly support the poor population.

We contribute to save girls from sex work at different brothels together with Dr. Mukwege and the Panzi Foundation. We also contribute to work-education for once raped women and children.
