A safe haven for (abandoned/underprivileged) children
The Obed Foundation was founded in the spring of 2014 with the aim of realizing a family home in Ghimbav, Romania. Ultimately, the desire here is about 6-8 to catch abandoned children in a family situation. Five children are currently admitted to this family home.
By means of our family home, and our caring volunteers, we hope to reach the local community to follow and provide a (temporary) home for abandoned children in their own families. This will ultimately provide more children to grow up in a loving family.
local projects
By supporting existing local projects, The Obed Foundation contributes to improving the wellbeing and prospects for approximately 125 children.
One example of a local project we support is to provide school bags to children in the nearby village. These children simply have no financial option to obtain a basic product to support their education.
What we do
The name Obed is a Biblical name and means "servant". The foundation aims to provide a serving role by financially supporting Danny and Rianne, who lead the family home. The OBED Foundation therefore focusses mainly on fundraising.
The family house has been named Casa Nadina. Casa means house, Nadina means hope. The name also embraces the objective of the Obed Foundation to provide a hopeful future for children in a safe home.
Expanding facilities
By realizing new construction and renovation of the existing building, it has become possible to be able to permanently compete with 6 to 8 deserted children.
