We are raising funds to financially support a single mother, victim of violence and her two twin children from the town of Svoge.

Radostina is a single mother of twins, a survivor of domestic violence. She was forced to flee the violence, spending years in a Crisis Centre. With the help of her mother, Radostina moved to the town of Svoge, where the two of them take care of each other and the twins. But fate again confronts her - the children's grandmother falls ill and Radostina is left alone with the children and without a home.

After years of struggle, she manages to break out of the absurd cycle of abuse, and in early 2023 Radostina turned to us with an appeal for help. Over the past year, we have done everything in our power to pool donor resources and help Radostina overcome her crisis. We organized a donation campaign and raised a total of 7 900 leva, the funds from which were able to provide shelter and temporary security for the family. With the money we paid a deposit for two months and a large part of the monthly free rent for the flat for 12 months. We bought household goods and textiles. We received a donation of two beds and a toy house cabinet from Videnov Furniture. From Dawn Family Stores we received a donation of a washing machine, fridge and cooker. At this stage the home is equipped satisfactorily. The children live in a clean and comfortable home. Our care is not limited to providing material help.

Our mentoring program provides personal attention, psychological support and commitment. With our mentors we helped Radostina with medical check-ups for the children. We arranged for an eye exam and the ordering of glasses for the boy and an examination with a cardiologist due to suspected heart problems. We supported her and the child in the evaluation for deficits, psychologist and psychiatrist. Fortunately the boy is completely healthy but still has mild behavioral issues due to the difficult years the children and mother have experienced. We provided a week's holiday in the summer for the children and Radostina in Bansko. The family holidayed in a hotel for the first time in their lives. In the kindergarten for both children we cover the fees for the English language course, take the children to the cinema and theatre, provide them with books, drawing materials and toys. We still have a lot of work to do, but we are doing everything we can to make sure that the twins grow up in a nurturing environment so that they can reach their full potential.

Despite working as a hygienist, Radostina's salary is insufficient to cover rent and bills. The twins need a safe home and peace of mind to grow up happy. Together we can provide that for them. We estimate that a donation of 6,000 BGN will cover the cost of rent for another year and ensure the twins are ready for school in 2025.

The Generation Programme team believes that together we are responsible towards children, especially those at risk. They have the potential to become well-rounded individuals, and we strive to provide the conditions for them to have an equal start in life. Help us to help Radostina for her dignified motherhood without the risk of institutionalization and a safe and cozy home for her children. Let's give them a peaceful home and a happy childhood!
