We accomplish this based on four principles:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Concrete, small-scale projects<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Concrete means tangible projects. Consider supplying a gynecologist treatment chair to a local hospital, an autoclave, clean needles. But also a scholarship for children so they can go to school, or shelter for people who lost everything during a war situation. By taking on small-scale concrete projects, it is manageable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Volunteers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>CEOs of large non-governmental organizations (NGOs) earning extreme salaries &#8230; that does not fit our foundation&#8217;s thinking. After all, it is not for what goes around. What makes Aid 1 to 1 Foundation unique is that <strong>everyone<\/strong> within our foundation works on a volunteer basis. Helping others must come from your heart.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Collaboration<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No bureaucracy, working efficiently and also achieving our goals can only be done by working together and not reinventing the wheel. Together, we achieve more. For this reason, we cooperate with other foundations\/NGOs as much as possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Transparency<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our process is completely transparent. That is, we take the donor through the process from donation to connecting smiles of the needy. This allows the donor to track exactly what happens to his\/her donation and what it is spent on.<\/p>\n<p>Help from donor to recipient &#8211; aid one to one!<\/p>\n\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/section>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"views\/template-content.blade.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-41958","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"samenvatting":null},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/soolong.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/41958","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/soolong.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/soolong.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/soolong.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/soolong.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41958"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/soolong.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/41958\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":41968,"href":"https:\/\/soolong.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/41958\/revisions\/41968"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/soolong.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41958"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
