Issue 208 Easter 2015 - Esther House, a Palace of Hope

Our newest partner is Moldova is Esther House, operated by the German Christian charity, Ora. The day centre is in a village called Vilcinet and last summer celebrated 5 years of being open. Over these years Esther House has become a second home to many children from desperately poor village and surrounding areas.

For Olga, the Centre is an important part of her life: "Here I can feel free, full of energy and creativity. I love my peers and my teachers. These people make our days more interesting. From the very first day I came, I felt that I will spend the most beautiful moments of my childhood here."

At Esther House children of all ages learn to speak English, to do handicrafts, to dance and to sing. They also get assistance with their homework, psychological support and they can have open discussions about different topics such as hygiene, society, the environment, protection and the Bible.

Issue 208 Easter 2015 - Strengthening Bodies

The Tony Hawks Centre in Moldova is dedicated to improving the lives of children with chronic conditions who live in socially vulnerable families by increasing the children's access to rehabilitation services and educating their parents.

Marin was one of the first children to come to the Tony Hawks Centre. Born with Cerebral Palsy, his mother went into deep depression. However with support from her family they have all rallied around Marin and are helping them through his rehabilitation.

Thanks to the generosity of ChildAid's followers, Marin has attended the centre for 14 years and has received physio, massage, speech and occupational therapy all completely free for the family. The generosity from our followers has further allowed us to fund our partner Speranta which has enable Marin to go to school - he is especially keen on English, Maths and History. 

We are blessed to have the support of author-comedian Tony Hawks. Buy his book today - proceeds to go ChildAid
