Family Support

We work with Albanian families navigating poverty, instability, and crisis — providing integrated support that addresses immediate needs while building long-term resilience.

Whole-Family, Not Just Aid

Most charities address one need at a time. We believe a family in crisis needs multiple forms of support — simultaneously. A child can't learn if they're hungry. A parent can't work if they have no stable housing. A household can't heal if mental health goes unaddressed.

Our Family Support program bundles five interconnected projects under one umbrella, managed by a dedicated case worker who coordinates services around each individual family's needs.

From First Contact to Long-Term Stability

Our intake and support process is designed to be fast, dignified, and effective.

01

Referral or Self-Referral

Families reach us through community leaders, schools, healthcare workers, or by contacting us directly. No referral letter required.

02

Needs Assessment

A case worker meets the family at home within 72 hours. Together they map current needs across all five program areas.

03

Support Plan

We build a tailored plan that activates relevant projects — food delivery, housing support, job training — based on what the family actually needs.

04

Active Support

The case worker checks in monthly. Support is adjusted as the family's situation evolves. No one is dropped without a clear handoff.

Help a Family This Month

A donation of €25 provides a full food basket. €100 funds a home repair. Every amount makes a direct, measurable difference.
