Meeting of Board of Trustees Mai 2014
The first of two annual board of trustees meetings took place in Alfter on 17. May 2014. One of the main focus discussions referred to the various project activities in the Philippines particularly after the typhoon that hit heavily the area last November 13. The trustees used also the opportunity to visit one of the new supporters of the foundation. Heike and Karl-Heinz Mandt have established a sales shop, called „Hofladen", directly at their farm ground. They produce more than 40 crops throughout the entire year and sell them directly to their customers. As the couple has been visited several times by Philippine farmer groups they decided to take also responsibility for one world.

The revenue of their latest farm festival and the sales of newly created recycling bags from Cebu have been donated to the foundation. Currently other ideas have been developed and we hope that they will also root successfully in the soil of Alfter.
