Opportunity International Germany is a Christian-motivated organization that has been helping people help themselves for more than 20 years. Our faith drives us to support people living in poverty in developing countries. We treat these people with respect and we believe in their ability to permanently free themselves from the cycle of poverty. Empowering women is particularly important to us. In cooperation with experienced local partner organizations, we promote education and entrepreneurship as an investment in the future. Through personal support, imparting technical and entrepreneurial knowledge, access to school and vocational training as well as financial resources, we give poor people the chance to establish and expand their economic activities. This enables them and their families to lead dignified and self-determined lives – free from poverty. In the long term, new jobs will be created, entire regions will be strengthened economically and real future prospects will be developed.
