We spent a total of 576.132 Euro for our projects in 2012. This is 134.537 Euro less than last year.
The predicted expenses were twice as high, since we had the building of our new kitchen and sewing workshop in the initial budget. Due to the developments in Burma/Myanmar we stopped the building. At the same time we started saving heavily, we reduced the number of daily meals, stopped fruit and milk and did not increase salaries. We also did not hire new people, which meant our staff were quite overloaded.
In our initial budget we also had planned expenses for projects, which in the meantime could be covered by our sister organization Help without Frontiers Thailand and are still visible on our balance sheet for income and expenses. Around 70.000 Euro, which was used to build the youth centre and renovate the kitchen, will show up in the 2013 calculations.
