In November, a project visit to the San Roque Elementary School in the Philippines was on the agenda. The aim of the visit was to evaluate the project both as a whole and in individual tasks and to discuss any possible improvements as well as opportunities for the CFF's further involvement.

The results were extremely positive. All maintenance works were implemented in an exemplary manner and our aid programmes have seen a huge progress. Especially the developments in the "Health & Nutrition Programme" are very pleasing. Out of the 115 students, who thanks to this initiative received a warm meal each day at school, only 4 are still classified as underweight according to the Body Mass Index. It is our wish to offer these children more intensive support throughout the next few months in order to achieve a one hundred percent success rate.

 

Our actions within the framework of the hygiene programme have also yielded great results. A clear improvement in oral health can already be seen and the children's dental problems have diminished significantly.

The quality of the school garden, which was initiated by the Greenfinity Foundation", is outstanding and now produces more and more vegetables for the "Health and Nutrition Programme", which provides the programme with a solid basis. We're especially pleased with the teachers' and parents' amazing commitment, for they have offered their tireless support towards the children's welfare as well as a good education.
