Dank Ihrer Treue und der zahlreichen Spenden zu unserm 20. Geburtstag der VetVital GmbH können wir nun 200 Kindern einen Schulbesuch ermöglichen!

Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre Unterstützung!

Ihnen und Ihren Familien ein frohes Weihnachtsfest und ein gesundes neues Jahr 2022!

As part of our this year’s Christmas donation campaign, we are particularly interested in the following 3 projects:

08.12.2017:

VetVital & friends supports this year the tireless efforts of veterinarian Dr. Johan Marais and his team for the rhinos in South Africa. Since 2012, this small charity has been working intensively and at a very high veterinary level to rescue and care for rhinoceros and their calves, who have been injured by poachers.

The money goes into the implementation of their own development of a special locating system for the rhino horns. A transmitter implant in the middle of the horn should allow to identify a lane signal for up to 3 to 5 years. It’s extremely difficult electronically, but Dr. Marais and his team will make it!

With just € 200 a smile and a future can be given back to a child in developing countries!

Smile Train is a global child relief organization that cares for the operation and care of children with cleft lip and palate. Millions of children in developing countries suffer from untreated gaps and thus lead a life offside. Even worse, they have difficulty eating, breathing and speaking. An operation is a simple procedure and the change is immediately visible and noticeable. That’s why VetVital & friends supports the work of Smile Train this year (12/2017).

December 2017:

“Our mission is to build sustainable communities in Africa where there is hope to provide a future perspective and break the generation cycle of poverty.”

For more than 30 years, Jeff and Karen Rogers have been working to improve children’s lives in Malawi.

With their aid organization “CHILD LEGACY INTERNATIONAL” they ensure clean water, sustainable agriculture, education and medical care. In all these projects, helping people to help themselves is paramount, giving the children in Malawi a future perspective. VetVital & friends supports them on their way.

The heavy earthquake on 04/25/2015 in Nepal has motivated VetVital & friends to make a donation for the earthquake victims to the Sushma Koirala Memorial Hospital (SKMH) in Sankhu/ Kathmandu, Nepal.

The money benefits locally to people in need. But the misery is not yet defeated even after more than half a year. Therefore VetVital & friends has made again (in December) a direct donation to the SKM -Hospital!

The hospital was founded in 1996 as a medical aid project for plastic surgery of the charity Interplant Germany e. V. in cooperation with nepalese partner Sushma Koirala Memorial Trust and put into operation in 1997. In the SKM hospital mainly poor people are medically treated for free. In addition to this task, they help through education and training of nepalese doctors and nurses to improve the medical standard in Nepal.

“Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.” -Desmond Tutu

On September 21st, the world celebrates the International Day of Peace. It is a day devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace, both within and among all nations, peoples and communities. The theme of this year’s celebration was “Partnerships for Peace – Dignity for All” which aimed to encourage societies to work together to strive for peace. Over the past few weeks, the learners of the S.D.A. Primary School have been taking those words to heart and prepared for the International Day of Peace by writing their own peace poems about what peace means to them and organised a campaign to give back to the community. They decided to cook fresh food, to make some healthy snacks and drinks and to hand it out to the children of the Home of Joy orphanage in the Joza Township. It was a very rewarding experience for all and a good lesson about why peace is so important to the country and our communities.

“VetVital & friends” supported this day!

By long-standing business contacts with South Africa is the land of “VetVital & friends” particularly dear. Currently “VetVital & friends” supports projects of the VSA. The Village Scribe Association (VSA) is a local non-governmental organization (NGO) in Grahamstown, South Africa, which works with underprivileged, public schools in order to promote computer literacy in schools. To this end, the social eLearning platform in 2010 “awarenet” was developed. This program is specifically tailored to the needs of students and teachers in Joza Township in Grahamstown.

awarenet
“awarenet” is an eLearning platform and a social media tool that offers the students a personal and protected space to try out the digital network and to gain initial experience in blogging, discussion and in the online project work. The children learn to present themselves, to network, to communicate, upload images,create presentations and video editing. The coordinators of VSA and coaches visit their classes every week and work with them on various projects on topics such as health, sports, music, history and social commitment. (…) The platform has been designed so that even schools can use awarenet in rural areas with unstable power supply and poor Internet because it also works offline. awarenet is an open source program and can be integrated in every school and in every afternoon program at schools. Because no costs come to the participating schools, awarenet provides many opportunities for students, teachers and other NGOs in the education sector.
