| Welcome to the Minke Foundation! |
 |
The Minke Foundation supports the development of dignity, community-feeling and self-support in backwards areas. We try to achieve these goals by helping the population to get access to education and the improvement of the level of education. At the moment the Minke Foundation is merely aiming at children and young adults.
It should not have to matter where in the world you are born.
The goal of the Minke Foundation is to support education and matters concerning education for children that have no access to education otherwise. The Minke Foundation cooperates with the American Un Mundo Foundation. Both foundations have the same ideals, principles and working methods. Have a look at this site and see how much we can achieve with little money. Have fun reading!

| Latest news: Our projects: Las Mangas Roof project (16/9) |
Las Mangas is a nearby village of El Pital which is situated on the only road in the Rio Cangrejal valley. Last year the Minke Foundation was approachad by UN Mundo with a cry for help: “The roof of our school is that weak that we can only teach when it is dry. When it is raining the roof might fall down! Can you help us?” Our board has decided to give them a hand. US$1650,- were transferred to the Las Mangas roofproject. Of this money the wooden posts were replaced by steel pillars. On top of this a new roof was constructed. The work was done by the inhabitants of Las Mangas and now the children can safely follow their lessons. They are of course taken to school by Minke’s school-bus!
At the moment we are developing new projects together with UN Mundo and the people of El Pital. As soon as we have got news about it you will be able to read it on our website!
You can see: the Minke Foundation shows you what your money is used for!
We want to thank you for your support and hope you will keep supporting us!
