Donors
It has been a great pleasure to work together with you. AWDF is a very professional and visionary organization. You achieve the objectives agreed on [and] reach target groups that are difficult to reach without your extensive network. Furthermore AWDF is always willing to share information, let others learn from your experiences etc. You have inspired both other NGOs and donors. All my best wishes for the future of AWDF.
