If you would like to support a child on our education support program then please contact us at jo@lovelightromania.com. It only costs 50 Euros a month for a child to access our program and to have the opportunity of a bright and purposeful future.

EN – Today we want to tell you all about a new project that will be happening at the Sanctuary very soon. Firstly we want to say a big thank you to our new partner, Fundația Bricodepot. We have been selected as one of the 7 projects that they will support.

The project that we proposed to them is a solar panel system for our Sanctuary project. They really liked the concept of what we do at the Sanctuary and also the idea of sustainability. The solar system that we will be installing will be a 13 kW system.

Fundația Bricodepot will support this project with 60.000 Lei. We also be using the 11.357 Lei that we raised from the Sibiu Marathon and also the 2.133 Lei that Torsten Jörges raised during his 20 day sponsored walk.

For us it is important that our projects have a future and that we can help as many people in need as possible. If you would like to be kept up to date with our latest projects and news then follow this link.

RO – Astăzi la Sanctuar facem dulceață de vișine. Iată-le pe Rodica și Bianca care pregătesc vișinele.

Day 1 finished with some games in the evening in the yard and cellar of Michelsberger Haus where we are staying.

We also had a visit from our great friend Torsten Jörges. Everybody laughed and had fun. Then we all had pizza.

Day 2 we will be walking up to the citadel in Cisnadioara and then going to Sibiu to visit museums and to walk around. Today was our last day at Michelsberger Haus. We had to say goodbye (for the time being) to our friends Roxana and Tony. They have been wonderful hosts and their guest house is amazing.

We walked, played in the river and we ate some lovely food made by Roxana. It has been a great holiday and everybody is so tired now.

EN – This weekend was the International Sibiu marathon. We were very fortunate to have a project registered at the marathon and that we had people fundraising for it. We had 39 people participating as runners for our project and so far we have raised the amazing amount of 11.130 Lei. There is still time to donate to one of our runners.

Our project is to start the process of installing a solar panel system on the Santuary. The Sanctuary is a “locuința maxim protejată” (LMP) and we help adults with disabilities who have grown up in intuitions. Our goal is to help them to be integrated into society and to live an independent life and to have a purpose in life.

We would like to say thank you to Jez Allan, Claudiu Mureșan, Robert Rowe and all the staff at Kuka Sibiu. There will be a plaque with the names of everybody who donated and participated at the Sibiu Marathon for this project.

Also thank you Sibiu Marathon for organizing an amazing event and for allowing us to have a project at the event.

Here is a link to our project at the marathon.

One of our brand ambassadors, Torsten Jörges has powered through his sponsored trek for Love Light Romania. The trek has taken him around 12 days.

The trek is the famous Camino Portugues. He walked 250 kms. This is an epic effort by Torsten. The project that Torsten is raising money for is so we can make the Sanctuary more self-sustainable and we will do this by install a solar panel system there.

We would like to thank our friend Torsten and please go and visit his fundraising page here where you can donate to this campaign. Go and donate to this effort as Torsten is putting in a lot of energy and time: https://lovelightromania.galantom.ro/p/torsten

EN – Our friends at Kuka have provided us with support once again. They have used the redirection scheme that is available to companies in Romania.

The financial support that they have given us will help the adults with disabilities that access our services at the Sanctuary. Here they receive a family, life skills lessons and everything they need to live an independent and purposeful life. Something they have never had because they have grown up in institutions.

If you would like to redirect a part of your impozit pe profit and help our beneficiaries, then send us an email at: rob@loveligthromania.com

Be a hero and help somebody in need.
