SOS Children’s Villages opens trading and a new children’s village
SOS Children's Villages opens trading on the Amsterdam exchange of Euronext by sounding the gong. By sounding the gong, the international children's development organization calls attention to a joyful event: the official opening of the SOS Children's Village in Guatemala situated in Santa Cruz del Quiché.
This children’s village was achieved thanks to the donations of Dutch donors. Here, children who lost the care of their parents find a new home in a loving SOS family. The construction of the new children's village in Santa Cruz del Quiché region was very much needed, because the population in this region is struggling with major problems. The village of Santa Cruz del Quiché consists of twelve family houses. 84 children will grow up under the loving wings of an SOS mother.
SOS Children's Villages has been working for children without parents or a safe home for more than 65 years. The international children's organization believes that family is the most important foundation for the healthy development of children. Worldwide, hundreds of thousands of children get solid foundation to develop themselves to promising and independent adults with SOS Children's Villages’ help. Preferably within their own family, but if that is no longer possible in an SOS family in a children's village.
