Bean Bags |
The children with differing paralysis spend a lot of time lying down or in wheelchairs, we would like to order purpose made bean bags to provide an simple yet effective way to sit unaided but with support. We need to buy 187 units. Can you sponsor 1 unit or could you help with fundraising to sponsor multiple units? Maybe your company wants to get involved or maybe your friends and colleagues would step in to help you?
We can use the bean bags outside during the summer so the children can get their much needed Vit D, and they can then be used inside during the long cold winter months and provide much needed assistance for positioning and splinting while providing the necessary support.

Unit cost 870 Lei (56 Euro)
or 10, 472 Euro for all bean Bags

Underwear |
Every child needs a min of 3 pairs of knickers and at least 2 bras (if they need to wear one). These necessary items due to wear and tear need to be replaced every 3 months. The teenagers and adults wash them by hand and take great care of their undies and the care assistants wash the children's undies for them. The elastic is always stretching, breaking, if they go over to the main industrial laundry, they get torn and discoloured. During a 12 month period, we need to provide 12 pairs of knickers per child. Could you sponosr 1 child per year for underwear? or maybe multiple children? If you think you could send them from Ireland, having picked them up in dunnes or penny's we have a delivery service from Ireland to Moldova, just click here |
overall cost for underwear per child per year is 12 Euro
or for 351 children is 4,212 Euro

Roof in Baby Orphanage |
The baby orphanage desperately needs a new roof, it is leaking into the 2nd floor dorms during the winter and autumn. As we do not have enough funds to cover the costs of a new roof for the entire 6 blocks, we brought in specialists that measured up for roof repairs in the old roof. |
