Guarayos Project

"Production costs in Europe are too high – you should produce in Asia!"

I heard this sentence more than once during the founding and financing phase of my start-up.

But for me, a completely different question immediately arose:
How can I sell products for mothers – and at the same time support a system where children have to work under questionable conditions?

For me, it was clear: that's out of the question.

I was told not to turn a blind eye to it.
But that's exactly what I couldn't and wouldn't do.
Because sometimes "not looking away" also means making a clear decision.

This conversation showed me something crucial:
I don't want to be part of the problem.

We all talk about making the world a little better.
Why should I then consciously take a step in the wrong direction?

Yes – production in Asia would have meant higher profits.
But at what cost?

That a child works for hours to produce products that I sell?
Not with me.

For me, it quickly became clear:
I am not only deciding against something –
but very consciously for something.

For children. For dignity. For responsibility.

Because in this world there are children who lack everything –
medical care, safety, a real chance at life.

So I asked myself the next question:
How can I help – and whom can I really trust?

Transparency was particularly important to me.
I wanted to know exactly where support goes and what it achieves.

Fortunately, I met an impressive woman during my founding phase:
Ms. Glock.

More than 20 years ago, she founded a children's hospital in Bolivia and built up the project Guarayos from it.
To this day, she travels there several times a year, works on site as a pediatrician herself, and ensures that every donation arrives exactly where it is needed.

She personally manages the organization –
and even covers her travel expenses herself.

At that moment, I knew:
This is the right way.

Since then, I have supported the Guarayos project with full conviction.

With every order, I automatically donate €1.

A small contribution –
that together can make a big difference.
