Giving for Latvia

Established in 2009 by a group of young Latvian professionals working in London, the aim of Giving for Latvia is to provide aid to children and parents who have suffered from emotional and physical abuse, and to those disadvantaged by age, disability, financial problems and other hardships. Initially created to support children from children’s and women’s crisis centres in Latvia, we have over the decade worked with around 100 charities in Latvia, including for children with special needs and general parenting charities. Apart from grants and donations in kind (kids winter coats) we also provide information - distribute free of charge modern parenting books. All activities are arranged by unpaid volunteers and patrons. 100% of any donations are directed to the beneficiaries.
