Our base

PAINT FOR LIFE is explicitly committed to the declaration of Human Rights by the UNO that depict a significant progress for civilization.

Article 1
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

Article 26
(1) Everyone has the right to education. Education shall be free, at least in the elementary and fundamental stages. Elementary education shall be compulsory. Technical and professional education shall be made generally available and higher education shall be equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.

(2) Education shall be directed to the full development of the human personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. It shall promote understanding, tolerance and friendship among all nations, racial or religious groups, and shall further the activities of the United Nations for the maintenance of peace.

In many parts of the world these human rights are not realized.

On the contrary – the possibilities of wealthy people and the possibilities of people who are denied basic human rights grow further apart.

Our aim is to support people in poor countries to get an access to sustainable education in order to lead a self-determined and dignified life.

We will finance initiatives that run schools and other educational institutions in underprivileged parts of the world in a transparent manner and who are committed to an equitable exchange of experience between „north and south“.
