Caritas Moldova Charitable Foundation had the honour to receive the visit of the Caritas Norge delegation, led by Secretary General Ingrid Rosendorf Joys. The visit started at the Foundation's headquarters, where discussions took place on strengthening collaboration and implementation of joint projects.
Afterwards, the Caritas Norge delegation had the opportunity to visit the "Temporary Placement Centre for Refugees" in Chișinău, located at 1 Mușatinilor Street, within the FIDES Centre and Providence House. This visit provided a valuable insight into the activities and efforts of Caritas Moldova to support refugees from Ukraine.
During the visit, the delegation explored various facilities offered by the placement centre, including the kindergarten dedicated to refugee children, online and after-school classes, canteen and playground. They had the opportunity to interact with the children and staff, observe the educational and recreational activities carried out and gain a better understanding of the needs and challenges faced by the beneficiaries.
Caritas Moldova Director Edward Lucaci said: "We are grateful for the visit of the Caritas Norge delegation and their continued support. Together, we are making a positive impact in the lives of those who need our help".
In her turn, the Secretary General of Caritas Norge, Ingrid Rosendorf Joys, expressed her appreciation for the work done by the Caritas Moldova team and stressed the importance of international collaboration in managing humanitarian crises. The visit strengthened relations between the two organisations and opened up new opportunities for future cooperation.
