Hope and Homes for Children Charity, Kosovo November 2005
 

She often requests bedding and coats for the children but like all the aid workers, she will willing accept whatever she is given – even the no-longer-needed curtains sent from Surrey homes which are now an everyday part of these young peoples lives in Kosovo.

We have sent many boxes of aid to Jacqui in Pristina who works for Hope and Homes for Children and runs three small family homes for children in need of protection. Two of these homes accommodate 10 children aged 3-18 who are without parental care and who have suffered unimaginable trauma.

A third project is a semi-independent living project for young adults and the only one of its kind in Kosovo providing support to young adults without any other safe place to go and who would be at further risk if they did not have this option.

The aid we have sent contains anything from curtains to nappies and food and everything in-between.  Jacqui supports her own children’s homes and many, many other local families some of whom are Roma’s who have no other way to sustain themselves. 

As you can see, your contributions have been put to good use. Thank you very much.

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.
