About  [Edit]

We take action for children as an independent non-governmental social development organisation. We respect varying religions and cultures, and we work in countries and communities where our mission can contribute to development. We work in the spirit of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and we promote these rights around the world.



Vision:



Every child belongs to a family and grows with love, respect and security.



Mission:



We build families for children in need, we help them shape their own futures and we share in the development of their communities.



Our Values:



Courage - We take action. Commitment - We keep our promises. Trust - We believe in each other. Accountability - We are reliable partners.



Belarus:



The impetus for the construction of an SOS Children's Village in Belarus was the Tschernobyl disaster of April 26th, 1986. The necessary preparations for the construction of an SOS Children's Village in Borovljany, a small town about 20 km from the capital, Minsk, were made in co-operation with the charity foundation "Children of Tschernobyl". The first families were able to move into their new homes by the middle of 1995. There is an SOS Social Centre attached to the SOS Children's Village, which offers children suffering from radiation damage, from all over Belarus, accommodation for the duration of their out-patient treatment.
