Because the children we support in our organization's programs need help 365 days a year for a long time. Our work is long-term and continuous - we take responsibility for children for many years, until the moment when they become independent. That is why regular help is so important to us - with it, we can confidently plan our work and help families in vulnerable conditions. Even if it is a small amount. Thanks to this, we have the opportunity to constantly change the situation with children in need in Albania, to save families who are unable to cope with their own life difficulties on their own.
Every help is not just a drop in the ocean, on the contrary, an ocean of goodness is created from such actions. Every charitable transfer is a contribution to huge changes in the future.

Your charitable assistance will be spent on the needs of the children cared for by our organization. Every day, children need not only clothes and food, but also school materials, medicines, opportunities to attend courses, etc. - and most importantly, for the help of qualified specialists. Losing a family is a great trauma for a child. In the SOS Village, psychologists, teachers and social workers work with each child, helping them overcome the trauma of losing their family.
With your regular monthly donations, you will help us change the lives of many children and young people together and give them a chance for a happy and secure future.

*We are always in touch if it is necessary to make changes to your charitable monthly contribution - change the card number, amount of assistance, etc.
