Annual Report 2017

The annual report is also published for the year 2017. The Usthi Annual Report provides detailed information about all projects in India as well as important activities in Switzerland. With its 40th anniversary, 2017 was a unique year for Usthi, which was duly celebrated with a film premiere and an anniversary concert at Rapperswil Castle. What began 40 years ago with a simple street kitchen in Kolkata has now become a successful foundation with 12 projects and over 2,500 children and young people.

The annual report also provides information on the finances of the Usthi Foundation and includes the 2017 annual accounts. Usthi successfully passed the ordinary ZEWO recertification in 2017 and continues to be awarded the seal of quality. The ZEWO seal of approval stands for the effective and trustworthy handling of donations. Usthi would like to thank all donors and supporters who made our commitment to children in need possible again in 2017. THANK YOU!
