About us
Our vision is our dream
We have a dream
- That the children have a home instead of living on the street.
- That the children go to school, instead of being forced to work.
- That the children get love, rather than being lonely.
- That the children have hope for life and the future, instead of hopelessness.
Our goal
We wish to achieve these goals with respect for the children’s culture, traditions and religion.
- That the children have a home instead of living on the street.
- That the children go to school, instead of being forced to work.
- That the children get love, rather than being lonely.
- That the children have hope for life and the future, instead of hopelessness.
Enable is independent of political and religious interests.
Financial structure
Enable is an independent, donor-funded charity with around 450 members from 7 different countries. Enable’s financial base is based mainly on contributions from major sponsors and large single donations. In addition, Enable receives help in the form of membership contributions and gifts. 100% of the donations which Enable receives goes to help the children because expenses for administration are covered in other ways – including voluntary efforts. The accounts are prepared by State Authorized Public Accountant Marian Fruergaard from Nielsen & Christensen Statsautoriseret Revisionspartnerselskab.
