Help on the spot – fundraiser by Esther and John<\/strong><\/h1>\n

We, Esther and John, are now in Bodhgaya, India for 5 months. I (John) am a qualified general practitioner and a pediatrician in training. I (Esther), his wife, am an underwater archaeologist, guide and copywriter. We both left our comfortable life in Graz to volunteer for the two organizations SONNE-International and Buddha Education Foundation in India.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>

    We just wanted to do more!<\/h3>\n

    Injustices, poverty and inequality have always been topics that have concerned us. This time we wanted to do a little more than “just” donate and started the long journey to a foreign country with an almost foreign culture.<\/p>\n

    It is also a privilege for us to get to know the people, country and culture better on site. We know the importance of communication, knowledge sharing and empathy and that’s why we’re here.<\/p>\n

    That’s why we decided to collect donations for the important projects of SONNE-International in addition to our voluntary work. Specifically, we are currently collecting donations for our first aid courses, educational workshops and the school garden project.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
