Our Mission
Our Mission: Educate. Heal. Transform.
At ERFI « Empowered Rural Families International », we believe in a future where every child has access to quality education and where every mother can welcome her baby under optimal conditions. As a non-profit organization governed by Articles 60 and following of the Swiss Civil Code, we are determined to make a concrete difference in the lives of rural communities.
We fight against school dropout by promoting access to secondary education for children in villages. Additionally, we are committed to providing quality healthcare, with a particular focus on the well-being of expectant mothers living in these areas.
