The NGO Expo...


Earlier this month our city of Targu Mures in Romania held their 7th annual NGO Expo! It was two days of booths set up throughout the Center of town, meetings with area leaders and even a parade!


We found out about the Expo only a few days before it was set to take place, so the staff all worked together to prepare a booth filled with pictures, information, new brochures and more. The kids had a great time marching through town in the parade along with other Non-Governmental Organizations who help in the area in all kinds of different ways.


We were thankful for the opportunity to share "Fundatia LOC" with others in our community. Although we are very involved in their community with the orphaned and abandoned children, many had not heard of us and were interested to learn more. There were opportunities for them to volunteer with us and to join us through giving. This is still a growing concept in Romania and we are thankful that the leaders in the community are encouraging awareness of the work of NGO's in our area. We look forward to all that God is going to continue to do through us in Targu Mures and all of Mures County for years to come!

Thank god that this building was closed to the most terrible dreams.
Now, the dreams of many children a better future, beyond the horrors that he did. Even if we managed to get inside the organization, look outside the ghetto of garbage, everything looks like a graveyard where abandoned children are out of hear some echoes, and instead of flowers odorous scent remained dilapidate. It was too late that their souls to be saved? He forgot God we got this place so quiet now? Silence, suffering, ignorance, words that children in the institution has had on their skin, sufferings which have matured earlier! With God's help have managed to poach each place of suffering and have brought light, color and sun on the face of hundreds of abandoned children.What cost us their future? But the silence is still a "luxury" independent standing to wait for the banner of saving? Gifted, normal, simple, regardless of cultural or social condition, education and welfare of each child are the people who save their.
Courage, skill, light and inspiration from God, that you want.

Best wishes,
