Train to Change

Organization Description: 

Local workers organise a summercamp in May with the help of volunteers for children of 11/12 year old. The children are given lifechanging lessons as well as a break out of their hard lives, love, attention, games and enough food. This is followed up by two years of monthly visits, in which relationships are built and besides encouragement the children get extra help where needed.
