The “Development Education Information Center EPiZ in the One World Working Group Reutlingen eV” and “Sierra Leone Sierra Leone Adult Education Association SLADEA” are empowering 330 women in the 16 districts of Sierra Leone in the project.
Women who have completed training in one of SLADEA's adult education institutions or are in their final year are enabled to market products from their training, primarily in the field of agriculture, in order to feed their families and enable them to live a self-determined, good life. Interested experts from Baden-Württemberg enrich their training on financing plans and agricultural production. These are SDG 1, SDG 4, SDG 5, SDG 8 and 17 in practice.

The purpose and goal of the association is to support and promote self-help projects for people in West Africa, especially in the states of Sierra Leone and Gambia. The statutory purpose also includes material support for hospitals and orphanages as well as schools.
With the foundation we would like to set an example and motivate people of all ages to share part of their small or large assets with other people in need of help. Of course, we would like the support of as many people as possible who feel the same way as us and who are willing to give part of their savings, symbolically the “tithe”, for a globally fairer world. The foundation would particularly like to support smaller development aid associations in financing their projects, whose members work with passion every day to improve the living conditions of people in need. And not just at times when we are woken up again by a catastrophe, but constantly, daily and sustainably. For this reason, we founded the Ein Tenth Foundation and gave it a name that reflects the principle of sharing.
