Showing God’s love to the abandoned and needy in Romania
Providing food, clothing, assistance — and hope. Since 1998.
Our
Programs
Food and relief for families, outreach to children, a girls’ home and day center, and ministry in forgotten villages.
All programs
- Families served
Our family program helps low-income households with housing, food and job support — and keeps children in school through graduation.
- Girls graduated university
Through the girls’ home at Bethesda, young women received support, encouragement and a safe place to grow and thrive.
- Children welcomed daily
The Day Center welcomes up to 40 children every day with tutoring, computer access, nutritious meals and a safe place to play.
- Of every gift to Romania
We have never had paid staff. Every dollar goes directly to programs serving children and families.
Every gift travels from Northern California to trusted partners on the ground in Romania — from the neighborhoods of Bucharest to small villages in Teleorman County.

Upcoming
Event
Add to calendar Hope for the Future began in the early 1990s when our mother, Adriana, moved by the great need in Romania, started sending care packages to families in poverty.
In memory of our son, brother and nephew Emanuel — who dreamed of serving children before he passed from leukemia — it has grown into programs that share the love of Jesus by providing food, relief and hope to families across Romania.
