Born in 1941 in Germany, Hildegard has spent most of her adult life in Lausanne, Switzerland. In 2003, when she retired from a 35 year career in international marketing, she put her long-held dream into action: to invest her energy, knowledge and experience for the benefit of children and mothers in need all over the world. Her motto: “Retirement offers a great opportunity to make your contribution to alleviate human suffering.” Her role model? Aracely Medina, the sister of her first husband, a dedicated woman with a big heart, and the founder of “La Voix de l’Enfant” - The Voice of the Child Nabeul. Hildegard’s love for her husband Fateh Emam motivates her to dedicate herself so much to children in need in Afghanistan. For 17 years, Hildegard, grandmother of five adult boys, has been investing all her resources and time to realize this dream.
Fateh Emam was born in Kabul and later became a Swiss citizen. He lived on three continents before the age of twenty. A great adventurer and diplomat for a time, he travelled the world with his constant lively curiosity and heart-felt sensitivity. After studying law in Paris and political sciences in Lausanne, where he lived since 1952, he obtained a degree in social and political science from the University of Lausanne. He shared his experience in a biographical narrative “Au-delà des mers salées… Un désir de liberté” published in 2007 by L’Harmattan Paris. And then in 2008, at the age of 78, he published his first novel “L’Amant arabe de Miss Anne” also with L’Harmattan Paris. Fateh Emam passed away in October 2011. His literary work and his action with Vox Infantis will survive him for a long time.

Aracely Medina, from El Salvador, is a midwife who worked at the maternity ward and in mother and child protection centers. Janine Grenié, from France, was a professor of philosophy. These two Sisters of the Congregation of Notre Dame de Sion have lived in Nabeul for many years.
In 1995 they opened the nursery for abandoned babies and in 2004 they added a second floor on top of the nursery to open a center for single mothers. Vox Infantis Switzerland helped to finance the equipment of the Center.
Today, Aracely Medina has withdrawn from the current activities of “La Voix de l’Enfant” - The Voice of the Child, but she continues to go to visit the babies and the mothers, surrounding them with her love.
Janine Grenié passed away in December 2013.
Saloua has worked at “La Voix de l'Enfant” for 20 years. Here is what she said about her involvement: “I do my best to lead the association, caring for the well-being of the babies in the nursery and the single mothers who come to our Center. We are facing difficult questions: the abandonment of children and the social problems of the families. I have a friendly relationship with the employees because the work these women do requires a great deal of personal and emotional dedication.” Address de La Voix de l’Enfant - The Voice of the Child Rue Tarek Ibn Zied, TN-8000 Nabeul T:+216 72 272 286 Bank account Bank: STB Agence de Nabeul BIC/SWIFT: STBKTNTT925 IBAN: TN5910300031159628278888
