AMFO-delegation visits NGO's in St. Maarten
Members of the Antillean Co-financing Organization (AMFO) Supervisory Board, director and staff recently visited St. Maarten and toured several projects that were submitted to get AMFO funding.
Locally, the delegation visited the new office of the Victorious Living Foundation on Backstreet to be informed about the Family- and Friends Network Project. The tour continued to Sr. Magda Primary School, to observe the Philipsburg Jubilee Library's old bookmobile in use. Library director Ans Koolen was able to explain about the immediate need for the bookmobile to be replaced. A request for funding from AMFO for a new bookmobile is in the process.
At the No Kidding with our Kids After School Programme in Lion's Community Centre in Sucker Garden, the delegation saw the children who are benefiting from the funding AMFO has been providing for the past three years. It was the first organisation on St. Maarten to receive a grant under the new AMFO structure in October 2007.
To conclude the fieldtrip, the group went to Alpha & Omega Foundation after school programme, where a financing agreement was signed for the extension of the progamme till November 2008.

Relocation AMFO office St. Maarten
Not only the AMFO office in Bonaire found another location this year, also the AMFO office in St. Maarten is relocated. After six years the location on Pondfill above Blue Point was exchanged for a unit in the Brooks Tower, ahead of town. Telephone and fax number remain the same.
Directors AMFO and USONA pay visit to Prime Minister
02-11-2009
Recenlty, Reginaldo Doran, director of USONA and Reinoudt Karsdorp, director of AMFO, paid a visit to the Prime Minister of the Netherlands Antilles, mrs. Emily de Jongh Elhage.
Among other they discussed the future of USONA and AMFO after 2012, since the new countries Curacao and Sint Maarten will then have to take up more responsibility towards these funding agencies. In relation to this, also more cooperation between USONA and AMFO were discussed.
Another item during this meeting was the support of USONA and AMFO for the integral neighborhood approach currently underway in Curacao. Additionaly, also the opportunities of this approach for St. Maarten have been discussed.
