200 ENGLISH PEOPLE RENOVATE A BUILDING FOR AIDS CHILDREN

For almost 2 years, 200 policemen, teachers, doctors, reverends and helpers from England have been to work for a week each to renovate a building for the AIDS children of Constanta. The English people have offered their help voluntarily and all transportation has been by themselves. The investment has been estimated at 500 000$, the money has been obtained from donations.

Reverend Ashley Cooper and a large group of volunteers invite the English people to donate money or to come and work in Romania. "We show pictures and organise presentations which invite people to come and help us,” says Reverend Cooper.

The co-ordinator of the project and Vice President of the foundation 'Ajutati Copiii Romaniei', Ron Brassey, thanks the Local Authorities for their support and hopes that in 2 months the building will be ready to use. "Many people like Dr Meagroe, Dr Sirbu {The Dean of the University), the Mayor and the Local Council, the local police and especially the traffic police who helped greatly by transporting the materials, have all made the project possible".

The volunteers say “We come to Romania to offer the children who are in a terminal condition a decent death”.

The capacity of the building is for 50 places and the children will be treated in medical rooms with high quality medical machines.

After finishing that project, they hope to build a hostel, resting rooms, a chapel and a mortuary .
