Safe Homes
Loving homes for orphaned and abandoned children with special needs.
In 2005 Humanitas created the Safe Homes project, committed to providing lifelong care for orphaned and abandoned Romanian children with special needs and disabilities.
Not only do they provide essential medical assistance, but these residential homes guarantee a loving family environment to allow these abandoned children – who are often barely surviving in institutions – to grow and to flourish. And wow, have they seized the opportunity of a better life.
Foster Parents provide full time care in the homes, offering unconditional love and support that the children have so far missed out on in their lives.
Additional Humanitas staff, including qualified doctors, physiotherapists, and psychologists visit the Safe Home’s onsite Therapy Centre daily, to provide the one-to-one healthcare the children require.
Each of our children has shown phenomenal progress throughout their time in our safe homes, and our dedicated team work daily to empower these individuals to reach their full potential, both physically and mentally.
As they grow older in our care, we are with them every step of the way, through school, university and beyond. However they choose to advance themselves, the Humanitas Safe Home is always there for them.
It is hugely rewarding to witness the lasting improvement in these children who, without the Safe Homes project, would not have received the vital daily care they need.
And you too can share in their achievements. After all, none of this would be possible without the ongoing support of our fantastic donors.
