“Joy in a Box” at the school of Gheboaia
Afisari: 1,326 Yesterday we have successfully reached the ending of the “Joy in a Box” campaign and we have brought happiness into the souls of the pupils attending the school of Gheboaia.Without knowing when we decided to deliver our gifts, it happened that we arrived in the same time with Santa Clause, who was spreading his gifts assisted by the town hall’s personnel. As a result, our volunteers gladly became Santa’s little helpers and surprised the children even more.We were welcomed warmly by all the teachers of the school along with the headmaster of the school, Mr. Mihai Tarba, by all the children eager to receive their presents and by the parents who have carefully “equipped” their small, but sturdy future representatives of their village for the artistic performance.The pupils delighted us with Christmas carols prepared under the careful guidance of the devoted teachers. The silvery voices echoed throughout the school while waiting for Santa, Christmas and the Christmas holiday.Beautiful, well behaved children whose smiles and joy convinced us that our efforts were worth it, proved us that they deserve our support in the future. Thus, Gheboaia remained in our hearts as being a community of beautiful people where we will come back next year with new projects and campaigns aiming to help the school, the children and their families, those who are in need socially and economically.We would like to thank those who stood beside us, as a sponsor or a volunteer. The week prior to this event was … Mai mult >>
Presents from children for children
Afisari: 605 Yesterday we went to Targoviste to collect the presents offered by the pupils attending the Mihai Viteazu and Tudor Vladimirescu Schools regarding our “Joy in a Box” Campaign.We were very surprised and impressed by the almost 200 boxes and packages filled with gifts given out of the kindness of their hearts and also by the lovely children who greeted us with smiles, glee and songs. We are very thankful for the helping hands we have been given with carrying the packages to the cars.We would also like to thank the teachers whom we contacted initially, Mrs. Eliza Delureanu and Mrs. Mihaela Cantea, and also to their colleagues who took part in this campaign.Words cannot express our happiness and gratitude, so we will let the pictures talk. It will be a weekend full of work, but we are sure that together we will bring tremendous joy to the children of Gheboaia. Drop by drop, we have managed to gather everything that we needed in record time only with the help of those who got involved.Next week we will go to Gheboaia and we will return with pictures of the happiness brought by the presents 🙂 . 0/5 (2) Apreciaza
Joy in a box
Afisari: 3,927 Probably, many of you know about the shoebox campaigns, campaigns focused on collecting small objects that fit inside a shoe box, taking place around the holidays in order to help and bring joy to the ones in need, especially children.The SinVi Foundation runs a campaign called “Joy in a Box” with the main purpose of helping 300 children from Gheboaia, Dambovita.We would be very glad if you could show some support and help us bring happiness to these children with limited possibilities.After a quick visit, we discovered a group of people committed and willing to get involved in their community’s development. Although the pupils are coming from a very rough, limited socio-economic environment, the School of Gheboaia proved to be a favorable climate for learning, as some of its students later graduated from prestigious Universities in Romania. These merits are due to the combined efforts of the students, parents, and also especially to the teachers, whose active involvement is highly appreciated, given the overall context of lack in endowments.Because we are a NGO that promotes education and culture, we would like to thank Mr. Mihai Tarba, the headmaster of the school, who, despite being a young teacher, shows such will and dedication for his mission and an inspiring attitude, that is rare in the nowadays Romanian society.Thank you for coming together with us and we are waiting you, whenever you are available, for a short visit. We would like to share all the beautiful things we are doing … Mai mult >>
