The second largest country of Africa, full of paradoxes. On one hand, it is rich in natural resources (including cobalt, copper, coltan, crude oil, diamonds, gold); on the other hand, its inhabitants are among the poorest in the world.

On World Children’s Day, we look back on the last 10 years during which the Good Factory has supported young patients at a hospital and nutrition centre in Ntamugenga in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
It has been a remarkable 10 years dedicated to caring for children who face enormous health challenges. We care for children whose basic rights have been repeatedly trampled by violence, hunger and the terror of war. Your support is a beacon of light for kids, guiding them through dark moments and bringing relief when the suffering seems endless.
Today, we would like to thank you for these years of solidarity and generosity, which is embodied in every cent donated. It is thanks to you that we can continue our mission, offering help where it is most needed.
On World Children’s Day, we would like to turn our thoughts and hearts to all children who are struggling with adult problems. It is we adults who can solve them. We strongly encourage you to do some good shopping at the good deeds marketplace – GoodWorks 24/7.
There you will find the opportunity to donate an IV drip, a therapeutic meal or blood for a transfusion to a child, and the entire (!) amount will be donated to help on the spot.

The difference in appearance is striking, but Safari’s story is still being written. We gave him his first chance in early 2022, when he ended up in the nutrition centre on the brink of life and death. We fed him together in the moments when regular fighting by the Congolese army and rebellion was going […]
