Help the Children
Continuing with our daily posts on why children from FRCCF would need a computer, we have today Cristina, 11 years old who says: ” I use the computer for downloading information on the internet, I use the computer to play on it, to do my homework and find out a bunch of information I don’t know. I want a computer to achieve these things.”
If you want to help Cristina and the other kids have access to a better education go to www.licensetohope.com/contribute.
Hello dear supporters of License To Hope. We hope you had a great Easter with your families and friends.
We went last week to see some of the children at the foundation and we were really surprised on how energic, joyfull and playfull they were.
We talked to some of them and among some questions we asked them why they want a computer through the License to Hope campaign. We selected some of their answers and we will publish each of them day by day for 1 week in our blog posts and Facebook, so that you have an idea of how the fact of having a computer and working on it is reflected through the children’s eyes and mind.
Vasilica, 10 years old says: ” I would want a computer for studying and chatting with other children on the internet. I would go on internet to find some of my friends , play and also communicate with my relatives from abroad and wish them good health when it’s holiday times”.
You can contribute directly through the License to Hope campaign.
It’s up to us to help them!
As the Easter Holidays are approaching, the License to Hope team thought about preparing a nice surprise for the children at FRCCF.
This is why we got them Easter chocolate bunnies and made a surprise visit to the foundation. When we got there, the children were making some Easter baskets for their families and friends. We were very surprised to see them all so excited about the visit and so open and friendly to us. They showed us all the nice activities they do at the foundation.
We talked to them about their school activity but also about what they like to do during their spare time. They opened up to us and told us about what soccer team they liked, their favorite subjects in school, they showed us their drawings and they were anxious for the Easter Holidays to come.
The children were very excited about our visit and making new friends and so were we. When we left we promised them to come back and we’ll do more fun activities together.
They wanted to send a special message for the supporters of the campaign, wishing all of us a ‘Happy and Joyful Easter!’
We added below some of the pictures we took during our visit.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights stipulates that each child has
a right to education. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always happen from various
reasons, one of them being the lack of access to technology.
Most of the times, the children deprived of these things don’t have a strong
enough voice to make themselves heard.
To understand them, please take a minute and imagine what your life
would look like today, in 2010, without access to information! We
encourage you to post what you have imagined during that moment either
as a comment on our blog, at http://www.licensetohope.com/en/blog or on
Facebook, at
http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Cluj-Napoca/License-to-hope/350935896764.
Your opinion can be heard! Be the voice of these children!
The most interesting comments will be rewarded by the children from FRCCF.
Until the 15th of July 2010, we donate 50% from the Secure it Easy purchases you make, to support the program. The new education center will guide the children at the foundation towards a better future. With every Secure it Easy license you buy, you take them one step further.
