Our purpose
Our purpose is to help people in need. We are a bridge that connects those who need help and those who have the ability to help.
-
We are grandmothers, mothers, sisters, daughters, granddaughters... We are ordinary women trying to give people hope, a glimmer of light in a gloomy world. Those who care and look after the sad fates and lost people, trying to find solutions so that the problems become smaller.
-
When we talk about our impact, we believe that we have started a great wave of kindness that is spreading through the city, as the large number of people contributing with their donations confirms. The response from citizens to every appeal is incredible, and even within a record short time, we manage to collect the necessary aid. In addition to our humanitarian work, we are also successfully promoting our tradition and culture, participating in various events as representatives of the city and the country.
-
We sincerely hope that humanitarian organizations like this will have much less work, and we hope for better days for everyone. Nevertheless, we will be there for anyone in need of help, as much as it is within our power.
