Costs and benefits
Most of the goods used are donated to us, other products have to be bought.

In addition overhead expenses in the form of transportation cost, maintenance of the premises and rental of warehouses have to be compensated as well as the cost of new materials and repairs. Fortunately, our expenses can be kept low thanks to the fact that our organisation is run solely by unsalaried volunteers.

Our expenses are covered by requesting a relatively small donation from each applicant. In some specifically selected cases, limited supplies may be donated free of charge. By carefully controlling our income and expenses we managed to create a favourable balance of accounts over the past years, thus enabling us to continue and improve our work.
