About 80% of the funding for the primary school comes from the sponsors. It mainly corresponds to the 32 euros fee sponsors pay to become a godfather/mother. In addition, we also receive some donations. All the money we receive is ENTIRELY used for the school. This money is used to pay the teachers’ salary, desks and blackboards, books and other supplies.

The remaining 20% of the funding corresponds to the money the managers of the association invest in order to keep this project running. Management expenses include, among others, the purchase of office supplies, the cost of printing the photos of the children we give each year to the sponsors, telephone calls, posting, the cost of photo exhibitions and any other activities we organize to collect funding. Extraordinary expenses include sanitary expenses from sick students or urgent repair of school furniture, etc.

In addition to the economic investment the NGO managers make, one should also bear in mind that OUR PROJECT IS OUR FREE TIME. Each of us spends a considerable amount of our free time working on this project, including the fact that every year we travel to Burkina Faso (to manage the project and bring the scholar supplies to the school) using our few days of holidays.

We also welcome donations. Last year Claire Marie Marlhens and EOI Hospitalet gave us more than 50 English text books. Children loved them!

Sobre el 80% dels diners de la ONG venen dels 32 euros que paguen els padrins. També rebem donacions. Tots aquests diners són utilitzats EN AL SEVA TOTALITAT per l’escola, per pagar el sou dels professors, per comprar taules, cadires i pissarres, llibres i altres.

El 20% que queda l’aporten els mambres de la direcció de la ONG. Amb aquests diners cobrim despeses de gestió com la compra de material d’oficina, trucades, fotos que imprimim cada any per donar als padrins, despeses de correus, i diners per les exposicions de fotos i altres activitats que fem per recollir diners. Altres despeses que tenim són despeses sanitàries de nens malalts i reparacions urgents de les aules quan alguna cosa s’espatlla.

A part dels diners que invertim, cal destacar que aquest projecte el portem en el NOSTRE TEMPS LLIURE. Tots nosaltres (la direcció) invertim un temps considerable a gestionar aquest projecte, entre els quals cal destacar el fet que cada any fem servir els pocs dies de vacances que tenim per anar a Burkina Faso (a portar diners i material a l’escola i gestionar-la).
