Vacaru family

            Vacaru Laurentiu, the father in this family is a well known unemployed alcoholic and the mother has been diagnosed with a mental deficiency with relational dysfunctions.

            Because of this situation , the children have been neglected and left unsupervised. The living conditions were inhuman , they all  lived in one room so the space was not enough for 6 people and that room was far from clean. The only income was the mother's illness pension of 370 ron and the children allowances.

            In the same yard , there was the house of the maternal grand parents Damian Toader and Damian Didina who didn't want to get involved in the raising of the children under the reason that they are old and sick.

            Vacaru Antonio was born on the 4th of May 2001, Doinita on the 8th of January 2003 , Nicu on the 19th of December 2004 and Laura on the 27th of September 2010. They had one more brother, but by negligence he was run over by a car and died.

Ciorhan family

      Ciorhan Vlad was born on the 7th of May 1998 and Cristian was born on the 7th of January 2000 in Piatra Neamt. Their family had a lot of social problems - alcoholism, violence, poverty.

         The family was constituted in 1991 and had over the time 5 children. This family had big problems even from the start with violence and different conflicts so 3 of the children were given away to foster home, one child was placed in a center called Romanita and the oldest daughter stayed at home with the parents.

         The Ciorhan's house had 2 rooms without furniture and very dirty with no electricity.

          On the 12th of August 2003 the mother was killed by the father when he was under the influence of alcohol.

          … “truly this is a house for those who do not have a house, a family for those who do not have a family.”  This is not what we say, it’s the testimony of so many kids who already left the house and now they have had integrated into society finding a purpose in life.

          The “story of life” for many of them did not started as pleasant as they thought.  The childhood that for many people is a beautiful memory, for them it meant something completely different: violence, abuse, crimes, separations, deaths, hunger, coldness, disharmony in the family.

          At Casa Ray they have found something else besides their past: instead of caresses they have found comfort/consolation, instead of being surrounded by crimes they have found love… they have found what they have missed so much: a family and a home.

          In addition to all the necessities of the body - food, clothing, a warm bed, etc., they have found what they needed most, God, who is the Father of the orphans.

Wellcome
