Willems-Koop Fund

The Willems-Koop Fonds has promised to allocate an amount to Untenu for this year to cover the overhead costs. We are very grateful to the fund for this. It does not matter that much for a small or large foundation: bank and internet costs are equally high. We at Untenu do our best to keep the costs as low as possible, but some costs are unavoidable. The money that we normally spend on overhead can now be used for more help, training and other projects.

LGBT Advent service

Representatives of Untenu Foundation were present at a LGBT Advent service at the Mennonites Church in Middelburg (capital of the province of Zeeland, in the Netherland)s on Saturday 9 December. Untenu was invited to give a lecture about its work for HIV-positive LGBTs in Cambodia. During the church service a fund raising was held for the benefit of Untenu Foundation. Ton de Coster (chairman of Untenu’s advisory board) and Ron van Zeeland (chairman of the board of Untenu) went to Middelburg to attend the service. Ron van Zeeland held a lecture of which you can see a part below (with English subtitles).

The fund raising and the sale of Cambodian rainbow scarves yielded a total amount of € 362.25.
