Friendship Luxembourg works with vulnerable people in hard-to-reach communities of Bangladesh to address their most vital needs and help them transform their life.
The story of Friendship started in 2002 when Runa Khan had the idea to bring healthcare services to ultra-poor communities in Northern Bangladesh, leaving on shifting river islands, known as “chars”, of the Brahmaputra river using a hospital ship (“Friend-Ship”). This area dominated by the huge and fertile Bengal delta is in first line of climate change, and more and more frequently suffers natural disasters: floods in the North (2 to 3 per year), and cyclones in the south coastal area.
Quickly Runa realised that a single approach cannot solve development needs of poor and remote communities. So using a “needs-based” approach, they soon developed with the communities new services to provide access not only to health but also to education, climate- change adaptation, awareness of citizens’ rights etc…

Sozialequipe Por Bouneweg, which has as one of its aims to provide assistance to local children in need.

The Smile Train, providing corrective cleft lip and palate surgery to children in developing countries. All of these groups do works that literally change children’s lives for the better, and that’s exactly what we endeavor to do with the proceeds of our performances.

We were happy to have been able to donate €2,000 to each of these three charities from the proceeds of 2008 concerts, in total 6.000€.

With the proceeds of its 2007 concerts Voices International donated €2,000 to each of three charities, in total €6,000.

Unlike many charities that do many different things, The Smile Train is focused on solving a single problem: cleft lip and palate. Clefts are a major problem in developing countries where there are millions of children who are suffering with unrepaired clefts. Most cannot eat or speak properly. Aren’t allowed to attend school or hold a job. And face very difficult lives filled with shame and isolation, pain and heartache. The good news is that every single child with a cleft can be helped with surgery that costs as little as $250 and takes as little as 45 minutes. With our €2,000 donation, we financed surgery and the chance for a normal and healthy life for 12 children like these from around the world.

The mission of Ile aux Clowns is simple but important, and is in fact two-fold: it not only helps sick children, but in the process it provides jobs for the unemployed. Ile aux Clowns trains unemployed people to act as clowns, and then sends them to visit sick children in hospitals around Luxembourg. The formerly unemployed clowns are paid for their efforts, which provides them a source of income.

Arche de Noé is an orphanage in Burundi that takes in children from the streets. It has been in existence since 1993, weathering both the civil war and the outbreak of AIDS. Many Burundian children have had to resort to the streets, living on their own, without shelter, a place to sleep and adult supervision. They have no guarantee of a meal or any food on a regular basis; moreover, once they are faced with living in the streets, they are tempted by drugs and prostitution, contributing to the risk of exposure to AIDS. The goal of Arche de Noe is to help these children to overcome the hardships of their situations without parents, food and shelter. With the help of the catholic church, this organization has been created so the children can have a place to rest and recover from their street life. Those who wish can stay and learn a trade. Those who have no desire to accept the resources and services can at least take a shower and have a hot meal.

With proceeds of its June 2006 concerts, Voices International donated $2,200 to the International Community School in Decatur, Georgia, USA. Our former and founding musical director, Peggy Jenks, transferred to this school over the summer and is teaching music to refugee children.  There are 19 students in the 5th & 6th Grades from Afghanistan, Kurdistan, Burma, Congo, Iraq, U.S., Mexico, and possibly other countries who are studying “beginning instruments”. Through donations either of money or of instruments, they each have an instrument to play. They now have music stands, necessary accessories like oil, grease, reeds, straps, music, and a few African drums. This is a difficult challenge for Peggy, as many of the students have learning and behavioral issues as well as English-speaking and writing issues. Peggy tells us that the staff of the school are amazingly talented and very committed to teaching these children.  

We have received the grateful thanks from not only Peggy, but from the school’s administration, for our donation. Peggy feels that learning an instrument will give these students something very special in their lives. They unfortunately live in very unsafe apartment complexes with drugs, gangs, and guns out in the open. The International Community School is trying to create a safe place emotionally and physically for these special students.

With the proceeds of our Christmas 2005 concerts we will make a donation to provide relief to “Street Children‿ in Kabul, Afghanistan.  In particular, our donation will contribute toward keeping these kids warm and properly nourished during what is predicted to be an even colder than usual Afghan winter. We are very fortunate to have made direct contact with an American on the ground in Kabul who is personally coordinating relief efforts, so we can provide the funds knowing that they will be put to good use immediately, without the risk of bureaucratic intervention slowing down the process.

Aslan’s Brazilian Beneficent Association (ABBA) – Associação Brasileira Beneficente Aslan helps children in Sao Paolo, by taking them off the Street and providing them a place to live. ABBA then enrols them in a school and teaches them the basic social rules and discipline. Finally ABBA puts them back into contact with their families.

Proyecto Salesiano, the Ecuadorian Street Children’s Project helps to keep underprivileged children off the streets and in school.

In 2003 Voices International donated €2000 to Les Amis de l’Inde, which has, among other notable projects, helped to establish and maintain the “KIRAN” Village, a centre in India for children who are either physically handicapped or financially underprivileged
