Overview

Getting children off the streets and offering them a better life through education has been the mission of Primavera – Hilfe für Kinder in Not e.V. since its founding in 1990, when ten Bosch associates joined forces to do something about the hardships young people face in Brazil’s favelas. Today, the more than 1,500 members of the organization support 50 aid projects in 16 countries, having taken in over 800,000 euros in donations to date. As a matter of principle, Primavera’s projects always aim to offer more than short-term aid through basic medical care and a wide range of support, educational, and training opportunities. The organization also supports cultural projects. The underlying idea is the same in 2020 as it was 30 years ago: to help children and young people in emerging and developing countries and to offer them lasting prospects and tools for an independent life free of poverty. The key to achieving that is access to education. Primavera - Hilfe für Kinder in Not e.V. was founded 30 years ago. To guarantee the sustainability of the organization’s efforts, the principle guiding the selection of projects has remained the same: Primavera solely supports projects in places where Bosch is located, allowing local associates to make sure that each donation is always used directly to benefit children and young people.
