Table of JoyHave you ever been in a situation where you had nothing to eat, even for a day? Through the 'Table of Joy' program, we provide food to thousands of people. Donate a meal to a needy person and you will receive in return the most sincere 'THANK YOU!' of your life. Whom do we help? Families with many children, people without income, widowed or sick women, single mothers, bedridden individuals, adults or children, children in foster care, lonely elderly, homeless people. They fast even when it's not the fasting season.

Love & medicineDo you want to be friends? These children feed on our love and live with medications. What are the needs of these children? Some need treatment, others need prostheses, others need mobile wheelchairs or surgery. Help them to not miss out on treatment and to remain only with the love and joy of having been cured thanks to the help you provided. The money obtained from donations will be redirected only to the account of the hospital or clinic, and we will post the invoices/costs on the website of the Bucurie În Dar (Gift of Joy) Association.

Street people"The homeless" or "vagrants"! That's what we call these people, and that's what I used to call them too. Now I call them "my friends" - yes, yes, my friends! Perhaps you didn't know, but some of the people living on the streets were once teachers, intellectuals; others were too good to their children, ending up being thrown out of their homes; others, following disappointments, the death of their children, ended up under the open sky, but are freer than many of us. Some of them because of mental health issues, others were abandoned in hospitals, others grew up in orphanages or were left to fate. Usually, they don't look into your eyes when you give them food, they look down, but when they come to look at you and thank you, know that it is the most sincere "thank you" you have ever received! And you have done a great charity in the eyes of God! Our lives can change at any moment, so let's be thankful for what we have and not forget them. Help through us. Together with "First Responder", we feed them and provide medical treatment as much as we can. Help us to help them!

School of JoyThe children helped today are the educated adults of tomorrow. By supporting these children's access to education, you're also helping the community and supporting the contribution they will, in turn, make to the life of the community and this country. With your help, these children will discover the world, a world different from the one they live in now. Through them, you will also find joy! Moreover, we all know that in Romania, the phenomenon of bullying has escalated, with many children falling victim to it. We all know it's easier to prevent than to combat, which is why we believe that together we can help the little ones to have healthy relationships with their peers. We share with you the workshop project "School of Joy", which starts from a story - "The Hedgehog's Heart. An Adventure in Search of True Friends", written by Mariana Buric. The workshop includes games and activities that can be carried out with children by teachers in kindergartens and schools, as well as by parents at home. We would be delighted if among you there are teachers and parents who want to join us in this project. Let's help the little ones look forward to going to kindergarten and school, enjoying the friendship of their peers. Of the 300 children we support in school with your help, not one has dropped out of school!

Adopt a familyHelp at least one of our friends, young or old, big or small. Dear people, you have the opportunity to adopt a family to take care of, helping them in their needs and difficulties. Any help, no matter how small, is welcome. Call us to provide you with their contact details. Provide what you can for the needs of a disadvantaged family: a medication or a box of milk powder, basic food items, a notebook or a pencil for a student; all these are things that, unfortunately, not everyone can afford consistently. We make you aware of the cases, and you choose the family you wish to visit and help in the medium or long term.

"St. John The Merciful" Center

Together we save lives, change destinies, heal souls. Each of us has gone through a dark period at least once in life, from which we didn't know how to escape. We've seen family members, friends, loved ones in our life suffering, and then we understood what a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on means. How much the help offered with empathy, with care and love, counts! In such moments, you need support - and I firmly believe that the team of the "St. John the Merciful" Center will strive to bring solace, healing, and support to those who say: "Help me!"
