Vojo's Story

Convoy members have also become instrumental in changing peoples lives in other ways due to their involvement with Hope and Aid Direct. One of these live changing stories involves Charles Storer, Trustee and Treasurer of Hope and Aid Direct and a little boy called Vojo.

The Missing

One of the roles of the Hope And Aid Direct’s Easter 2004 convoy was to bring humanitarian aid to many families throughout Kosovo who since 1999 have been undergoing the traumatic stress of having to live their lives not knowing the fate of their loved ones.  Their story is simply known as ........ the missing.

 

Wish List

See what's on our wish list, and remember, all the goods you donate are delivered directly into the hands of those who need it most.

How you can help

No one involved in Hope and Aid Direct takes a salary, or charges for their time and many of our team do not claim back any expenses that they incur. Our volunteers give up their spare time to raise the funds needed to hire, fill and take trucks on the convoys and use up some of their precious annual leave to travel to the Balkans to distribute the aid.

Online donations

What makes it all worthwhile? Just take a look in the picture galleries, at the faces of some of the people who have been helped over the years.

Rotary Box Scheme

Our efforts are helped by the Rotary Clubs Emergency Box Scheme

When a disaster strikes, people need necessities like food, clothes, and a dry place to sleep. They need essential supplies, basic tools and some of the many things it takes to start the rebuilding of  their lives.

Rotary International offers this immediate aid requirement by providing their Emergency Boxes. These Emergency Boxes are available for both hot and cold climates with the contents lists specifically tailored by the Red Cross, each box providing vital aid for adults and children. Held in Rotary warehouses, boxes filled with essential provisions are stored ready for instant dispatch whenever required and provide immediate relief for the victims.
