The association is largely financed by donations.<ref>https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aktion_Regen</ref>
Their main focus, as from their own website, is "practice-oriented education on sexual and reproductive health, on family planning, on mother-child health, on [[FGM|female genital mutilation]], mental health and [[HIV ]] / [[AIDS ]] prevention in developing countries as well as in Austrian organizations With integration work."
The word ''Rain'' in the association name symbolizes the lasting support by intelligible knowledge transfer. According to the motto of the association ('Water to the roots'), this knowledge gives people the opportunity to lead a self-determined life.
