Counselling for 300 children in Romania

Dear Supporters,

Over the summer months, our focus for the Counselling for 300 Children project has been on building the foundation for a successful year ahead. We concentrated on creating meaningful connections with local communities and establishing partnerships that will ensure a long-term impact. Our efforts extended beyond the classrooms, as we facilitated social cohesion through a series of sporting events designed to unite children from different backgrounds. These activities helped foster a sense of belonging, teamwork, and mutual support among the participants, laying the groundwork for a collaborative learning environment.

The formal counselling sessions began in September 2024, with group counselling now being implemented in 15 schools across Suceava County. This program is tailored to meet the specific needs of each school and community, based on in-depth discussions with school teachers and directors. By working closely with educators, we’ve been able to identify the most pressing emotional and social needs within the student population and create a targeted approach for addressing these challenges.

Our goal is to offer a safe space for children to express themselves, develop emotional resilience, and build stronger relationships with their peers. Over the coming months, we will continue to adapt and refine our program to ensure that it provides the greatest benefit to the students and the communities they live in.

We look forward to sharing the progress of these sessions in our future reports, and we thank you for your continued support in making this project possible.

With gratitude,
Te Aud Romania
