In every society there are children and youth who are deprived of parental care for various reasons. These adolescents need special attention and support in order to have equal opportunities to develop and successfully overcome the difficulties they encounter in their lives. If you want to help these young and parentless adolescents it is important to know some key aspects. These will be helpful for you to be more effective in your support. Here they are:
The first step in helping children and young people deprived of parental care is to find out the cause of their situation. They may have been orphaned, abandoned or removed from their parents because of poor parental care or even abuse. Understanding such basic information will be of great help to you to adapt to the needs of such groups and to know how to provide appropriate help.
It is important that you are familiar with children's rights, as well as the international standards and laws that guarantee these rights. This will help you understand how you can protect and support the rights of those children and young people who need your help.
Every child and young person is unique in their own right. Each one has specific needs and faces life's challenges differently. You need to get to know the history of the child you are reaching out to help and understand what they need to develop and feel well. This may include psychological support, educational opportunities or career guidance, and many more things that these groups are often deprived of.
For these children and youth, it is crucial to have stable and trustworthy relationships from serious people in their lives. Building trust and a stable relationship creates a sense of security, protection and solidarity for such vulnerable groups. Be patient and open to the feelings and need of such children and adolescents.
Many times, people who have not lived in such societies do not know that sometimes small gestures are important. In other situations it may be the other way around. Still, try to establish a closer relationship, one that is understanding and adaptive to the specific needs of these orphans.
You can provide appropriate resources and services such as: access to education, medical care, food, social, psychological or other services. To this end, first find out exactly what they are deprived of and direct resources towards such assistance.
Raising money for children deprived of parental care can be more than challenging. Yet, with the right organization and commitment, anyone can start a fundraising campaign and achieve success. Here are a few guidelines to help you when you're wondering: how to plan a fundraising campaign.
When you decide to start a fundraising campaign, it is important to believe that it will be successful and help children without parental care. The choice to share your idea with donors from the Pavel Andreev Foundation is a very good one. On the pages of the PavelAndreev.ORG website, you can find many ongoing campaigns supporting children and youth, and many others from which you can gain insight on how to plan and arrange your charitable cause for an orphaned child.
This platform is well known in the community and has years of experience as well as many successful missions behind it. It has a large number of regular donors who are very likely to choose to support your cause as well. You just need to gather enough courage to start this venture. Once you've launched the campaign, a large part of the beginning of the project will have been realized. And yet, that's not all.
All crowdfunding campaigns for children and young people have one common goal - to succeed in raising funds for children who are deprived of parental care. These children deserve an adequate education, access to healthcare and the opportunity to develop and improve. They should have equal rights with others, this even includes the right to feel loved and surrounded, to be supported in their efforts and to enjoy their childhood. This is the most important thing that unites all the campaigns, namely the desire to create conditions for the well-being and development of these children.
There are children who, although they are not placed in homes, are nevertheless experiencing difficulties and living in extreme poverty. Our donation platform is also open to charity campaigns to help vulnerable groups. Sadly, even we at the Pavel Andreev Foundation are learning more and more about children who are in extreme poverty and need help. Sometimes their conditions are really so difficult that without outside help and donations they will not be able to cope. Many of these adolescents are at risk of dropping out of education, malnutrition and early marriage. If you know a child who is in this situation, you can help by starting a campaign for them on the Pavel Andreev platform. This is an opportunity to raise funds and resources that will help the child overcome their difficulties and gain a better future.
When it comes to supporting an orphaned child or young person, it is important that some of the help is directed in a way that also provides them with moral support. Let us not forget that often these vulnerable adolescents have not felt a mother's kiss, a father's protection, a brother's teasing or a sister's play. They have generally been deprived of the warmth and love of the family. These children and youth also have a need to feel loved, protected and important. This is essential for them. Of course, physical needs such as food, clothing and shelter are important, but we must not overlook the importance of the need for emotional support. Such is no less significant than basic physical needs. When caring for children, we must also provide them with moral support. This will help them to grow in self-esteem, confidence and develop as happy individuals.
Here we come to the final part. Here we will share with you how you can easily start your own fundraising campaign for orphaned children and youth in just a few steps:
Determine how much money you want to raise and what you will use it for. This will help you realize how much time and effort a charitable cause will take to reach your goal.

"I believe children are the future. Teach them well and let them follow their own path. Show them all the beauty they carry within them!"
