About the charity : Hope and Homes for Children Hope and Homes for Children
Hope and Homes for Children’s mission is to give hope to the poorest children in the world – those who are orphaned, abandoned or vulnerable – by enabling them to grow up within the love of a family and the security of a home, so they can fulfil their potential. In Central and Eastern Europe, we close orphanages and move children into family-based care whilst developing the services needed to help prevent child abandonment. In Africa, we provide a vital lifeline for families at risk of breakdown due to the pressures of poverty, disease or conflict. We believe that, above all else, every child should live within a loving family environment.

Personal message:

Hope and Homes for Children will be closing the Comanesti Orphanage in eastern Romania and resettling the children - either reuniting them with their own families or placing them in small family type homes. The homes need to be built, purchased and then furnished ready for the children. We have chosen to support the outfitting phase of the project.

Doug and Audrey

Below are examples of how your support could make a real difference:

£69 could buy towels and toiletries for up to 12 children in a small family home

£100 could buy a child their own bed plus sheets, pillows and blankets

£207 could buy a cooker and a microwave for the kitchen

£283 could buy 2 dining tables and 12 chairs made by Atti’s workshop, which offers training and a job to young people leaving institutional care, so that the children can sit and eat their meals together

£504 could furnish the living room with beanbags, couches and a table so that all the children can relax together

£690 could buy all the curtains and carpets needed to keep the children warm and snug in their new home
