Dear Reader,

 

 

 

In Hungary the 1990s there was great poverty.The situation has worsened since then and more and more people are becoming affected by the consequences of the financial and economic crisis – if we just consider those who are unable to pay their utility bills or repay their bank loans.

 

 

 

Every single person having goodwill and wishing to act has a lot to do to moderate this tendency and to improve the life of families and children facing problems. Our founder realized the need for setting up a new foundation in the autumn of 2012, and professionals – amongst them engineers, doctors, lawyers, teachers,  – having experience of several decades in the running of charities joined readily and undertook to help our work.

The Rachel Assistance Organizing Foundation does not pursue direct political activity. It is independent of political parties and does not provide financial assistance for them. Its activity and operation are characterized by voluntary service, humanity, impartiality, neutrality and independence. The Rachel Assistance Organizing Foundation is open. Any foreign or domestic private person, organization without legal personality and legal entity may join it if they accept its goals.

 

 

 

In order to achieve its goals, the Rachel Assistance Organizing Foundation performs the following tasks:

 

 

 

• subsidizing and supporting people in need, satisfying their needs occasionally or regularly (foodstuffs, clothes, washing and cleaning stuff, medicine, equipment, etc.);
• providing mental support, services, information and advice;
• supporting the work of other charitable organizations or partners co-operating in the achievement of the goals of the foundation;
•  health preservation, disease prevention, therapeutic and medical rehabilitation activities;
•  social activities, family counselling, care for the elderly;
•  school instruction and education, personal ability development, dissemination of knowledge;
•  children and juvenile protection, children and juvenile advocate services;
•  promotion of equal opportunity within society for underprivileged groups;
•  activities in connection with ethnic minorities living in Hungary and with Hungarian nationals living outside of Hungary;
•  promotion of employment and training for underprivileged groups in the labour market – including outsourcing human resources as well – and associated services;
•  activities associated with flood and water damage control.

 

 

 

The principal aim of the foundation – thinking along national terms – is mainly to help people in need living inside and outside of Hungary.

 

 

 

• the number of socially deprived families is growing;
• growing number of initiatives by the local governments (in particular in underprivileged regions and districts of the capital);
• immediate availability of people having adequate professional qualification, experience and charitable vocation;
• further on it will be possible to win foreign and national tenders.

 

 

 

I started describing our aims with a quotation by Thomas Kempis and would like to finish with another one: ‘"Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of its trouble, attempts what is above its strength, pleads no excuse for impossibility, for it thinks all things are lawful for itself and all things are possible”

 

Thank you very much for your esteemed attention and I place my trust in your helping intention.

 

Best regards,
Monika Madaras
