Our financial and human resources

SOS Faim's
Finance 2025

For over 30 years, SOS Faim’s mission has been to work towards transforming agricultural and food systems by funding and supporting organisations committed to sustainable family farming and by promoting responsible food consumption. None of this would be possible without the generosity of those who choose to support our organisation. The support of our private and public donors is invaluable, as it enables us to take action.

This year, SOS Faim has been able to count on the generosity of 2,125 donors. This outpouring of generosity has enabled us to raise €611,956.34 in private donations. Thanks to extremely rigorous financial management over the years, SOS Faim is in good financial health, which allows it to look to the future with confidence. We thank you sincerely for this.

Your trust demands our transparency.

SOS Faim goes further by using a range of measures to guarantee transparency and to ensure the proper use of the funds you entrust to us. They are also available online on the SOS Faim website: www.sosfaim.lu, in the ‘About us’ section.
