HOPE AND HOMES FOR CHILDREN

Overview

Whilst many people view orphanages as institutions that deserve support, the evidence of the outcomes for children is overwhelmingly negative. Hope and Homes for Children has the aim of eradicating the need for such places by ensuring that all children have the opportunity to be raised by a specific human being, preferably a family member.

Hope and Homes for Children has worked in Ukraine since 1998. The country has one of the largest systems of institutional care in Europe, with 100,000 children living in 663 orphanages but these buildings are now being targeted by shells, missiles and illegal cluster bombs as fighting intensifies. As large numbers of children are being left to face the dangers of war alone, Hope and Home for Children are working across Ukraine, Moldova and Romania to help protect children and families in conflict.
