Sustainable Growth Projects e.V.
We are a group of friends who have formed a family over the years. Besides our different origins and backgrounds, our passion for social justice played a decisive role in the idea of founding the non-profit organization.
We always pursue the goal of implementing projects that have a long-term sustainable effect and represent a step towards helping people to help themselves. A partner project that is ideal for us encourages the local community to be more independent and self-reliant and to improve their quality of life. We accompany our cooperations in the long termand expand respectively.Our support lasts according to individual needs even beyond the successful completion of the project. For us, the sustainability approach also means keeping donors informed about the progress of the projects in the long term.
Collaboration has a special relevance for us in terms of needs assessment and the relevance of our projects in countries of the global south. We believe that our local partners know best which projects are currently important for the community and actually need support. Therefore, we work in close cooperation and exchange information on a regular basis. Together we can achieve more than individually. That is why we have also joined forces in order to unite and complement each other's different skills, knowledge and experience.
"Human dignity is sacrosanct." Therefore, respect is one of our most important values at SGP. We live it by treating people with the same respect regardless of their origin, religion, gender, physical characteristics, or social status. We assume that this respect is based on reciprocity and are convinced that all parties involved benefit from working together as equals. Because only then can all parties benefit in the long term. Based on this principle, we are open to cooperation with any social, religious, scientific and political organization that represents our values.

In Germany there is no publication requirement for non-profit organizations.
One of our values is maximum transparency, because we want to make the projects as tangible as possible and give you an insight behind the scenes. As a sign of this, we have joined Transparency International's “Transparent Civil Society” initiative and are disclosing our figures, data and facts.
You can find all of this here on our website Transparency page.
