Romania Aid Group
What is the Romania Aid Group?
The Romania aid group is a charity that helps poverty and sickness in Romania.
It started in 1990.
First of all the charity delivered help to Botosani, which is in Romania.
They met a group of children aged between 3-15. Most of them were disabled in some way and the orphanage they were in was in an appalling state. The Romania aid group decided to help and support them.
These children were moved to another orphanage, but by this time the oldest children had to move into an adult hospital which was even worse than the one they had been in before.
The Romania Aid group decided to look after some of the older children instead of them going to the adult hospital.
After lots of fund-raising the Romania Aid group bought the House of Blessings for five youngsters to live in.
The House of Blessings
The House of Blessings is a safe and secure home for the 5 youngsters:
Viorica
Iuliana
Mihaela
Marin
Ovidiu
The youngsters get:
Supervision
24 hour care
Education
Medical care
They are now provided with a better future and they are making big
progress in many different areas, like cooking and language
development.
The House of Blessings youngsters think of the house as a home and consider the other youngsters and
staff as family.
They respect each other and value each person and the staff that helps them.
The StaffThere are lots of people working to help
these youngsters in their home. The house manager is called Lili and she is
responsible for running the house. There are some care staff, an instructor, a gardener, a doctor and an accountant
(someone who deals with all the money).
It costs about £1200 a month to run the House of Blessings.
This money goes towards:
paying the staff
food, clothes, healthcare and medication
Bills
Looking after the house
Entertainment
Gifts
We raise this money by fundraising and donations from people.
Mad March Hair Day is one of our fundraising events that we hold.
Romania Aid Group would like to buy a vehicle to help
everyday activities that the youngsters and staff do.
We would also like to get money for another house.
