Day Care Centre for Socially and Economically Disadvantaged Children, Romania, Romanian Relief Service

The day care centre aims to protect children at risk of neglect, abandonment and juvenile delinquency. The project will support a group of 15 children aged between 6 and 10 years old from socially disadvantaged backgrounds, and will be implemented in 2016 by the Romanian Relief Service branch in Aiud. The centre will provide a range of after-school activities including activities that develop personal creativity, regular visits to the doctor and personal development training. The after-school activities support children with their homework and school subjects, maximizing each child’s potential and stimulating their interest in acquiring knowledge. It is hoped that the children who attend the day care centre will achieve better communication skills, improve their academic results, and become physically and mentally healthier.
