TESTIMONIALS
“I have been supporting Terre des Hommes for about 30 years! Together with my wife Margherita, we built a beautiful family of three children and then, over time, three daughters-in-law and four grandchildren. Unfortunately, Margherita is no longer with us, but I continue to keep our promise intact: to support the most disadvantaged children in the world.”
“For my 60th birthday, I decided to do something different: I organized a party and asked all the guests to make a donation to Terre des Hommes and thus support the Indifesa program for girls: I wish all the girls in the world had the same opportunities as me and were protected from all forms of abuse.”
“Returning to visit Terre des Hommes projects in the field, experiencing their work firsthand in such a complex context like Syria is a very strong and enriching experience. I have known Terre des Hommes for many years now. The beneficiary is always their top priority, very attentive to how they express themselves, how they behave, and always enthusiastic about their work.”
