Help the childrenFor a better futureIt is that simple to do good.
Each child needs love and support – everywhere.
What we can do
Only with your help is our work possible! Through your support, orphaned children receive a home through the most critical stage of their lives. Each donation to Streetkids International e.V. is tax deductible.
Educational Sponsorship
By financially supporting a child’s education, you will ensure the orphan receives vocational training and the opportunity to gain independence in life.
Corporate Sponsorship
Sponsorship from companies is an excellent way of working together with Streetkids International e.V. to support projects within the framework of Corporate social responsibility.
Child Sponsorship
Even a minimum sponsorship of € 30 per month goes a long way and helps provide for the upkeep of one of our orphans. By becoming a sponsor, you can give an orphan the feeling that they have someone supporting them personally.

If you want to support our organisation with a one-time donation, you can donate directly online or via a bank transfer.
You can make a big difference with a small donation. Either by making a one-time donation, or electing to sponsor a child, read on to find out how it is possible.

I am happy to be able to support as an ambassador for Streetkids International as I believe every aid project is only as good as its creator. Daniel Preuss and his team have convinced me with their professionalism and passion, this is what unbureaucratic direct help looks like. I visited Tanzania and can only say: “Respect for this dedication”
