Our mission: to give hope and quality of life
The inspiration that drives us daily in our work comes from the infinite love and commitment of our founder Adolf Paster († 2022) and his wife Martha. We work every day to continue his legacy and to give people in need hope and the opportunity for a secure life.
We thank you in advance for your help!
HIFA’s work began many years ago with the courageous commitment of Rev. Fr. Dr. Aaron Ekwu († 1989) and Adolf Paster. Together they began in 1969 to support the starving population of the Biafra region during the war in Nigeria.
His sudden death in 1989 in a traffic accident reminded us how important it is to keep going and to improve the lives of others, as long as we can.
With every day that we stand up for the needs of others and help them improve their lives, we honour the memory of Fr. Dr. Aaron Ekwu and Adolf Paster, who changed the lives of many people. They inspire us to this day to continue their mission.

A world without hope and help from organisations like HIFA is a world in which millions of people are left alone with the challenges of survival. It is about education and training for children and young people, about life-saving medical care in remote villages and about living conditions such as well construction in rural communities.
