De Stichting Familiefonds Wierda-Baas is in 1993 opgericht door Froukje Wierda-Baas en Koop Wierda. Het was voor hun een manier om invulling te geven aan hun christelijke achtergrond. Heel eenvoudig: mensen helpen die het minder goed hebben dan wij.

Dat is nog steeds het motto van onze Stichting. Wij richten ons op duurzame projecten in landen waar de mensen het minder goed hebben dan in Nederland. Een bijzondere focus hebben wij hierbij op de landen in Afrika. Omdat nog veel mensen in Afrika in structurele armoede leven, en omdat Afrika steeds meer een buurland wordt van Europa. Daarnaast hebben wij bijzondere aandacht voor de landen op het Indiase subcontinent.

Onze Stichting richt zich primair op meisjes en vrouwen. Als meisjes en vrouwen zich kunnen ontwikkelen en zich kunnen ontworstelen aan de traditionele rollen komt dat ten goede aan iedereen. Het kan ook weerstand oproepen bij jongens en mannen, maar ook bij oudere vrouwen. Daarom is het belangrijk dat projecten er werk van maken dat veranderingen mede gedragen worden door de omgeving van de meisjes en de vrouwen, zoals ouders, de familie en het dorpshoofd.

Wij willen geen scholen bouwen, maar wij willen dat alle jonge vrouwen een echte opleiding voltooien. Natuurlijk heb je daar gebouwen voor nodig, maar die zijn 'maar' een middel tot een hoger doel. En wij financieren alleen projecten die werken met lokale mensen en middelen. Daarbij zijn ondernemerschap en eigenaarschap belangrijke voorwaarden.

Veel armoede komt door oorlogen. Veel oorlogen zijn nog lange termijn gevolgen van Europese interventies in de wereld. Ook daarom hebben wij speciale aandacht voor projecten die werken aan samenlevingsopbouw in conflictgebieden. Het resultaat van bouwen aan vertrouwen is een minder zichtbaar en meetbaar project, maar zo wezenlijk om een leven in vrede voor steeds meer mensen dichterbij te krijgen.
