Dear Friends,
It's hard to imagine but in rural Romania, children with disabilities, especially orphans are still being placed in institutions. Without education or life skills, they are at-risk of being institutionalized forever or ending up on the streets as adults. We work hard to prevent this from happening!
When we opened the doors to our Delia's Learning Center in Barlad, Romania nearly 4.5 years ago, none of the kids who enrolled were in school.
TODAY, 75% of our school-age kids are in school!
Miracles like this happen every day for our kids. But we need your help to keep the miracle going! We are so appreciative of your support and hope you will continue to be a champion for our special kids who need us to ensure they reach their highest potential and that their voices are heard and needs met. Please consider an additional donation or becoming a monthly donor (if you are not already one of our monthly donors). A link to this project is included in this email!
I am sharing some new photos of the kids so you can see how much they have grown and progressed. We have grown too and now have 41 kids!
As always, thank you for being by our side in helping the children.
Best,
Lauren Fishbach, U.S. Board President, Co-Founder Delia's Learning Center
