We aim to help the poor and disadvantaged in Eastern Europe.  As our name suggests the majority of our work takes place in Romania but we also help projects in the Republic of Moldova and Albania. 

Here in the UK we raise the funds to send out to our projects in Eastern Europe  We have a team of people committed to working day by day with the homeless, the extremely poor people of the county and prison inmates. We get involved in a concrete way in their lives by offering them the possibility to educate their children, give them food, medical help, financial support, build them homes, wells, purchase them basic goods, such as land or wood for heating.

WHERE ARE THEY BASED? 

Projects we support are based in the North-East of Romania, Albania & Moldova.

WHAT DO YOU DO?

We have two main areas:-

      Education.

We work with children and after school groups.  We also work with homeless young adult men teaching them social skills and the Bible.  Also working with vunerable young adult both girls and boys, in villages where there is much poverty and little hope.  Lastly we work in prisons with the inmates teaching them social skills and ethical values.

      Community development and social work

We work with families and their children some of whom live in the shanty towns and others in homeless hostels.  We go and meet with them regularly to extend help and advice to those that others would ignore.  The team also helps with the building of homes, wells, animal barns, buying animals, etc.  We also run a  playroom in the local children's hospital where traumatized children come and play and families receive councelling and help.

WHAT HAS BEEN ACHIEVED IN THE PAST?

Many things have been achieved. A Life Skills Centre,  4 community centres -  all running, houses have been bought for families in the ShantyTown, and some moved out from that area. We have built houses for families, many wells and about 10 animal barns, We have renovated 2 floors including wards of the local main children's hospital, worked with orphans, sick or very poor children on a daily base every year since we were established. Employed over 50 homeless over the years and helped them into jobs and accommodation and many others projects over the years. 

We have funded a number of Aid for Trade projects based in Albania to help people to start their own businesses and soup kitchens and kindergartens in Moldova that are supported.
