With the occasion of the most recent donation, the Edelweiss Foundation representatives made public information on its activity for the last 5 years. “Some of the letters we receive are signed by children. They write to us and share their wishes, and in most cases they do not ask for toys for themselves, but rather for help for their parents, siblings and grandparents. We try to respond to such requests, to reword through our donations the innocent and pure souls of the authors… We try to help as many children we can, for them to grow happily in their families. We try to help the best way possible”, said the Edelweiss team.

Recently they visited Tiganesti village in Straseni region. This is the address the letter signed by Ina Bidniuc, a 12 year old girl, was sent to the Foundation. She wrote to Edelweiss about her family, she loves very much, about her younger brothers and her mother, who has her hands full of worries and work.

“From Ina’s letter we understood she wrote it with her own words, she shared her thoughts, telling us about the way things are happening in her home. She told us in the letter that her mother Liliana is sometimes borrowing the washing machine from her sister, every time a big pile of clothes and linen to wash is gathered. Furthermore, they do not have any other home appliances, with the exception of a fridge”, said Lara Moraru, Edelweiss executive director.

Thus, the Edelweiss representatives paid a visit to Bidniuc family in Tiganesti village with a surprise donation. They offered the family a washing machine, which Ina asked for to help her mother with day to day work. Moreover, Edelweiss donated a gas cooker, a vacuum cleaner, a microwave and an electric pot. Ina received a brand new laptop from Edelweiss, and her younger brother Sergiu who is 10 – a mobile phone he wanted so much, as well as a lot of toys.

Edelweiss Foundation was founded nearly 5 years ago by Vlad Plahotniuc. Throughput this period, Edelweiss made donations to hundreds of beneficiaries, children and youth, socially vulnerable families, athletes and people of culture.
