L'HEURE VIDE HUMANITAIRE - Venezuelan refugees

While travelling through South America by car we crossed the border of Ecuador and Colombia in Rumichaca. There we saw so many Venezuelan refugees in such great misery without the help they needed, that we decided to stay. We started this NGO, and have been working together succesfully with local and international organizations to give them the help they need. Please visit us at: www.lheurevidehumanitaire.orgInstagram: L'HEURE VIDE humanitaire L’HEURE VIDE humanitaire is a small network-based NGO focused on short-term projects in emergency situations involving refugee issues worldwide. Our approach is to assist existing humanitarian aid structures and local associations and to supplement them when their opportunities to act are limited or restraint.Our aim is not to direct or to implement.We are there to help. This approach ensures that we can focus on what is needed on the ground and in the now to fill the gaps in aid left by big organizational structures and complex international policy. As a small and nimble organization, we are not limited by bureaucracy or massive overhead.This allows us to concentrate our efforts where we excel: organizing the available resources in a hands-on, creative way to produce tangible results quickly and effectively. Sofie Sleumer and Michel MulderFoundersEn voyageant à travers l’Amérique du Sud en voiture, nous avons traversé la frontière de l’Équateur et de la Colombie à Rumichaca. Ici, nous avons vu beaucoup de réfugiés vénézuéliens vivant dans une telle misère que nous avons décidé de rester. Nous avons donc lancé cette ONG et nous collaborons avec succès avec des organisations locales et internationales pour donner à ces réfugiés l’aide dont ils ont besoin. Voici notre site web: www.lheurevidehumanitaire.orgInstagram: www.instagram.com/lheurevidehumanitaire L’HEURE VIDE humanitaire est une petite ONG dédiée aux projets à court terme impliquant des réfugiés dans le monde entier. Notre approche consiste non seulement à aider les structures d’aide humanitaire existantes et les associations locales mais également à les suppléer lorsque leurs possibilités d’agir sont restreintes. Autrement dit, notre but n’est pas de diriger ou de mettre en œuvre: Nous sommes là pour aider. Cette approche nous permet de nous concentrer sur ce qui est nécessaire sur le terrain et dans le présent pour pallier aux limites l’aide accordée par les grandes structures organisationnelles et les complexes politiques internationales. Pour cause, en tant que petite organisation agile, nous ne sommes pas contraints par la bureaucratie ou les frais généraux massifs. Cela nous permet de concentrer nos efforts là où nous excellons, à savoir l’organisation de ressources disponibles de façon pratique et créative pour produire des résultats tangibles rapidement et efficacement.

Help fund a cochlear implant surgery for 18 month old baby

Raising a funding campaign as I came across the story of Marc Alexander, 18 month baby boy born in Haiti and diagnosed bilaterally deaf (both ears). Long story short, Haiti does not have the proper medical infrastructure and the government support to help this little boy get a cochlear implant surgery that would give him the ability to hear and speak. The longer he waits to get the implant, the more irreversible speech and development delay will occur. This would cost USD 30,000 including a trip abroad to get the surgery done (I myself have done research for my daughter and no kidding, it really cost that much). I spoke to his mother who didn't know what to do and who to turn to, and I felt the need to help them. As a French national and a Hong Kong resident , and as a mother of a 6 months deaf baby myself, my family is fortunate enough to have access to the best-in-class health support, excellent medical care and infrastructure ...and this is all (or almost) FREE!! We tend to forget how lucky we are. This little boy does not share our luck.Please take some time to read his story, DONATE and SHARE THIS POST to help him get access to a cochlear implant surgery, this amazing, life changing technology that will give him back the gift of hearing and speech.Carine Story of Marc Alexandre: Hello everyone. We are Kamaïa and Darlin Jeanty, parents of 18 months old Marc-Alexandre. We live Haiti, one of the most under-developed country in the world.We suspected the deafness of our son when he was 2 months and a half, as he was not reacting to sound. Due to lack of medical resources and infrastructure in Haiti, we were unable to obtain a diagnosis right away. When Marc-Alexandre turned 12 months old, we had been recommended to have him checked out in Republic Dominican. Without a second of hesitation, we took out all of our savings and bought a flight for the 3 of us to go meet an ENT specialist there. The results were devastating: Marc-Alexandre was diagnosed bilaterally deaf (both ears). We were not sure what to do or where to turn. We do not know if he would ever say, "I love you Mommy and Daddy." We have prayed for a happy, productive life for Marc-Alexander, and we want him to go to school and someday graduate from university to pursue a career and a life that he chooses.The ENT was adamant that our son needed cochlear implants; Implanting Marc will give him access to sound which will provide him with the only chance of age-appropriate speech and language development. This will provide him the opportunity to a better education and independent employment as an adult in the future. If not implanted, it may lead to permanent changes in the auditory cortex in the brain which may make it impossible to benefit from a cochlear implant or any form of hearing restoration surgery in the future. The cochlear implant bypasses the damaged portions of the ear and directly stimulates the auditory nerve. The signals are generated by the implant and are sent passed the auditory nerve to the brain where the signals are recognised as sounds. However, the cochlear implants will cost USD$30,000 as we do not have insurance and there is no government social subsidy or help of any kind. We are raising money to pay for medical expenses including surgery, cochlear implant device, and a trip abroad for the surgery.Marc is growing up and as his parents; we know we have to do something. The only future for our son is to hear with cochlear implants. Just like everyone else, we want to give him the best possible future there is.Life is so precious and this innocent boy who deserves the right to live normally. In advance, we extend our heartfelt thanks for your incredible moral and financial support. Thank you for helping us change the life of our child. Kamaïa and Darlin Jeanty

Marco & Thijs - Bike4Kika

All, This summer (4th August) myself and my son Thijs will be biking ~1000km from Oberrieden, Switzerland to Schagen, the Netherlands. We will be following the river Rhein all the way to the Netherlands. We aim to complete the bike tour in 10 days. We are doing this to raise money for child cancer research. Reason we are doing this is that a little over a year Thijs’s grandad passed away from cancer. I also had cancer and was lucky enough to survive, as such we want to do what we can to help other people that have cancer. Every little bit helps. All the money donated will go 100% to KIKA, which has been set up in 2002 to fund innovative research for Child Cancer. Treatments have significantly improved but still 1 in 4 children, diagnosed with cancer dies. The charity’s aim is to increase the survival rate of children suffering from cancer from 75% to 95% by 2025. They aim to do this by funding scientific research, improving treatments (less pain, higher cure rate and improved quality of life), concentrating expertise and treatment for children to accelerate experience. We hope you want to support with us this cause as no one especially not a child, should have to die from cancer. Thank you!Thijs & Marco

Support for Aelfin Michel

Aelfin Michel - Critical Condition - Hua Hin, ThailandSadly, on December 31st, Aelfin tragically crashed on a motorbike causing him to suffer severe head and face trauma. Aelfin is currently in ICU under 24 hours medical care and constant support. When Aelfin arrived in emergency he required immediate surgery to remove bleeding on the brain and had part of his skull removed, which will need to be replaced with titanium. His jaw and teeth were severely smashed which will require surgery, as well as other serious facial and head injuries. Unfortunately this is a very critical situation. Due to the severity of his head injuries he has had many operations to date and requires many more, plus 24 hours support and months (if not years) of therapy. The latter is not yet known as we are currently taking it day by day, knowing that each day is a miracle. Aelfin is a fighter and at every set back he is fighting to stay here with us. For those that know him will know his determination and stubbornness. This trait is shining through in his fight for his life. This gives us hope. Holding onto this hope and knowing that Aelfin will keep on fighting, there is a long and very expensive battle ahead of us. He requires many more surgeries, and unfortunately at this stage, we are unsure of the extent of damage and rehabilitation required. We urgently ask all of you to help support Aelfin and his mother, Emma, with the extensive ongoing medical costs and medical care that Aelfin needs now and for the coming months. ALL of the funds donated will be used to cover Aelfin's hospital bills, medical and rehabiliation expenses. We would like to express our gratitude for your kind donations to the SUPPORT AELFIN FUND. Best regards,Aelfin's support team

April 2021 veränderte sein und unser Leben schlagartig. Bei einer Trainingsausfahrt am Nachmittag wurde er auf der Landstraße von einem Auto erfasst. Dabei erlitt er ein schweres Schädelhirntrauma. Bei Eintreffen der Rettungskräfte befand er sich aufgrund der schweren Hirnverletzungen bereits im Koma.Seit nunmehr 3 Wochen liegt er im künstlichen Koma und bestreitet seinen bisher schwersten Wettkampf.Nach Hirnsonde und mehrfachen medizinischen Komplikationen, zeichnet sich ab, dass er durch seine schweren Kopfverletzungen nur durch eine spezielle, langwierige Reha wieder zurück in sein noch junges Leben finden kann.Die neue Situation wird uns als Familie und speziell Peter vor große mentale, zeitliche und vor allem finanzielle Herausforderungen stellen, weshalb wir eure Unterstützung benötigen.In den vergangenen Wochen erreichten uns einige Anfragen, wie geholfen werden kann.Mit dieser Spendenaktion, bieten wir euch die Möglichkeit, einen Beitrag zu leisten, dass Peter ́s Leben wieder "Fahrt" aufnimmt. Vielen Dank für eure Unterstützung.Hinweise:Spenden per PayPal bitte an +4917646163569 - diese werden dann im Namen des Spenders dem Spendenkonto hinzugefügt Der Link öffnet die europäische Seite von Leetchi.

L'éruption du volcan Nyiragongo a surpris la ville de Goma, jetant des milliers de Congolais dans la détresse. A ce jour, en dehors de pertes en vies humaines, on signale la disparition de plusieurs centaines d'enfants, une population qui doit fuir la ville en catastrophe et dans un dénuement total. Cette situation appelle la mobilisation de tous les Congolais et de personnes de bonne volonté pour venir en aide à des personnes qui ont pratiquement tout perdu. L'argent récolté servira à financer les besoins de base ; médicaments, nourriture, vêtements, et se loger.Goma a besoin de notre soutien.

A few days ago a fire destroyed the camp of Moria where more than 13000 people lived. Most refugees end up on the streets around Mytilene, where they are blocked by the police. They don't have access to food or drinkable water so they need our help urgently. We are gathering money to buy and prepare food for them. We have already cooked for 1000 people and will continue to do so until it is no longer necessary.

Dear IBPG members, As we strongly believe in deliberate practice, we decided to offer online sessions during the lockdown. We have been truly blessed with more and more colleagues joining our practice group from all over the world and becoming new friends. Thank you! As you all know, IBPG is not an association of any kind from a legal point of view, we are just a group of colleagues and dear friends who volunteer to set up regular practice sessions for all conference interpreters.In the previous years we have applied a membership fee of 15EUR/year for our onsite sessions, to cover the basic expenses (mike, website, etc.).This year, we would like to ask for a donation in order to allow us to cover the Zoom subscription. We would also like to revamp our website and add a couple of extra plug-ins which could make the registration process easier..!If you wish to help us, we would be very grateful! Since we launched our online sessions, we had the pleasure to welcome members from all over the world. We understand that in certain markets this fee might have a bigger impact on your annual expenses, therefore, please feel free to make even a small donation. Thank you, and see you at practice! The IBPG Team

Politische Arbeit braucht ein finanzielles Grundgerüst - Spende jetzt!Die Themen Freierbestrafung, Sexkaufverbot und „Schwedisches Modell“ gingen im letzten Jahr wieder verstärkt durch die Medien. Die Forderungen nach einem solchen Sexkaufverbot für Deutschland werden mit wirkmächtigen Bildern von verletzlichen und geschundenen Frauen beworben. Sie prägen sich ein. Angeblich soll eine Heerschar osteuropäischer junger Frauen hier versklavt und unter schlimmen Bedingungen zur Prostitution gezwungen werden.Das Problem? Es gibt keine Belege für diese und ähnliche Behauptungen von Prostitutionsgegner*innen.Der Großteil der Sexarbeiter*innen lehnt eine Bestrafung ihrer Kund*innen und damit ein faktisches Arbeitsverbot strikt ab.Wir als Berufsverband haben im letzten Jahr sehr viel Zeit und Energie dafür aufwenden müssen, um die einseitige Betrachtung von Sexarbeit richtig zu stellen.Unsere Bemühungen haben auch Früchte getragen: Sexarbeit bzw. Prostitution wird in der öffentlichen Meinung und der Politik zusehends sachlicher betrachtet.Warum ist diese Spendenkampagne dann gerade trotzdem so notwendig?Nun, die Kuh ist noch nicht vom Eis. Mit der Evaluation des ProstituiertenSchutzGesetzes wird das Thema „Sexkaufverbot/Schwedisches Modell“ garantiert wieder hochkochen. Unsere Verbandsmitglieder engagieren sich mit großer Mehrheit ehrenamtlich für die Rechte von Sexarbeitenden. Sie müssen ständig kräftezehrende Auseinandersetzungen mit Prostitutionsgegner*innen führen, die die Lösung aller Probleme in der Abschaffung unseres Berufsstandes sehen.Oft sind die Fronten so verhärtet, dass gar kein Dialog mehr möglich ist.Wir vom BesD wollen stattdessen lieber praktikable Alternativen zum Schwedischen Modell (und zum ProstituiertenSchutzGesetz!) miterarbeiten. Wir wollen unsere Energie verstärkt in die Lösung der wirklichen Problemen in und um unserer Branche stecken. Und auch wir wollen, dass Menschenhandel und Ausbeutung eingedämmt wird.Doch unsere Kapazitäten sind erschöpft. Um effektiv an einigen wichtigen Themen arbeiten zu können, die bisher zu kurz kommen, brauchen wir schlicht finanzielle Unterstützung.Wofür wird das Spendengeld verwendet?Neben der erwähnten Mitarbeit an Alternativen zum Schwedischen Modell und ProstSchG, würden wir gerne auch die folgenden wichtigen Themen als Verband angehen:* Umstieg aus der Sexarbeit: Wir wollen unsere Expertise in Konzepte für Aus- und Umstiegsprojekte, für diejenigen, die nicht in der Sexarbeit bleiben wollen, einbringen. 2021 wird das Familienministerium hierzu ein Modellprojekt in 2021 auf den Weg bringen.* Menschenhandel: Wir wollen eine Arbeitsgruppe zu diesem Thema aufbauen, die mit Expert*innen zusammenarbeitet.* Arbeitsplatz Straßenstrich: Wir wollen an sinnvollen Umgestaltungen und besseren Arbeitsbedingungen auf den Straßenstrichen mitarbeiten.* Genossenschaftsbordelle: Wir wollen Modelle für Genossenschaftsbordelle erarbeiten - ohne dabei die klassischen Bordelle in Frage zu stellen. Gutgeführte Prostitutionsstätten sind wertvolle Arbeitsplätze!* Öffentlichkeitsarbeit: Wir wollen mit einer Sexarbeits-Konferenz in Stuttgart im Sommer 2021 alle Menschen und besonders Behördenmitarbeitende und Politiker*innen zu Vorträgen und zum Dialog einladen.* Medienarbeit: Wir wollen mit monatlichen Presseschulungen auch den Sexarbeitenden Mut machen vor das Micro oder die Kamera zu treten, die sich das sonst nicht zutrauen würden.Geplante Verwendung der Spenden:Aufbau von Arbeitsgruppe „Umstieg aus der Sexarbeit“, Honorare für Expert*innen, Aufwandsentschädigungen, interne Weiterbildung, etc. ca. 1.250 EuroAufbau von Arbeitsgruppe „Menschenhandel“, Honorare für Expert*innen, Aufwandsentschädigungen, interne Weiterbildung, etc. ca. 1.250 EuroAusbau der bestehenden Arbeitsgruppe „Straßenstrich“, Schulungen, Recherche, etc. ca. 1.000 EuroVeranstaltungsbudget Sexarbeits-Konferenz Stuttgart, Zuschuss Ziel: Aufklärung besonders von Politik und Behördenmitarbeitendenca. 2.000 EuroVerbandsinterne Presse- und Medienschulungen für Sexarbeitendeca. 1.500 EuroAufbau interner Datenbank, als Ablage und Fundgrube für politische und wissenschaftliche Texte und als internes Diskussions- und Arbeitstoolca. 1.500 Euro Summe = 8.500 Euro

Dear all,It is very hard for us to contemplate the passing away of our dear friend, Yulu Zhang, at the age of 31. An accident claimed his life on Friday, October 1st, 2021.Although his life ended before we were ready, the time that he spent in our lives was memorable and full of joy. We know that this loss is deeply felt by many.We have set up this link to raise funds to help Yulu’s wife and son in this very difficult time. Everything will be kept as transparent as possible and Mohit, Liming and Hesong will make sure the money gets to them when we are done gathering it. Donations are on a voluntary basis and no amount is too small.Thank you all.

Please help us getting through the corona virus crisis !! My name is Marc Pomel, Managing Director of MALDIVES PASSIONS Dive School, on the local island of Maafushi. MALDIVES PASSIONS Pvt, Ltd. has been registered as a company in July 2011, and was the achievement of a dream made 9 years previously by myself & Adham, my Maldivian business partner. This dream was made possible thanks to a new policy from the Maldivian government (back in 2008) promoting a new type of tourism, based on local islands instead of private resort islands. On local islands, you could be in contact with the population, interacting with them, sampling the authentic Maldivian culture and making sure that every single dollar you spent would benefit the locals instead of some big international resort companies.MALDIVES PASSIONS was the 1st dive school to open in Maafushi, the 1st ever local island to embrace local tourism. For almost 9 years, we managed to be ranked #1 attraction by TRIPADVISOR, to be the Award Winner of TRAVEL & HOSPITALITY, and to be the "Learning Experience of the Year" by LTG GLOBAL AWARDS. During this time, we also got deeply involved with the local community, bringing countless unemployed youngsters to diving professional level, conducting regular beach & lagoon clean-ups with school kids & tourists, organizing fundraising for the local school, setting-up numerous marine environment awareness program (with both kids & adults), and creating a coral growing project in Maafushi’s lagoon in conjunction with the Island Council. Unfortunately, all this is now in jeopardy, due to the current pandemic. The international airport was closed from the 19th of March with the whole country fully quarantined, and small business like us left high & dry with no income & no help whatsoever from the government. Furthermore, we had to move to a new place early in February, thus facing significant costs & expenses in the relocating process. All those factors contributed to the fact that ran out of money, so from last April onward, we were not able to pay our staff anymore. We had to temporarily lay off some of them, who returned to their home islands & families already, but 4 of our staffs (with no other place to go) were forced to remain with us in Maafushi. Although we can't give them any salary, we are still trying to bear the cost for their accommodations, food, and the utility bills (water, electricity & internet). Therefore, I am humbly requesting your help to face those expenses until business resume (supposedly on the 1st of November), and until we financially stable enough once more. Here is a breakdown of the incurred costs for your information: * Food cost is 170 USD/person/month for a total of 680 USD* Accommodation discounted rent rate is 550 USD per month* Average monthly water bill is around 330 USD, and electricity is about 260 USD.* Internet fee is 70 USD/month Therefore, we are looking at a grand total of 1890 USD/ month. Please, help us to keep the dream alive, as without you, we will be forced to sell everything & close down MALDIVES PASSIONS permanently. Anything you can spare & give will be very much appreciated, no matter how small your contribution. To show you our gratitude, and as a small gesture of recognition, we will be glad to offer a free fun dive, and an additional 10% discount to any contributor coming to Maafushi. Thank you very much for your help & kind consideration. Warmest Regards.Marc Pomel & team.
