This holiday season we are asking you to support our Give Roma Hope campaign and offer Roma families in Bulgaria the gift of a secure home.
The Roma population of Bulgaria, according to some estimates, is between 500,000 and 800,000 people. Almost half of them are currently living in poverty housing. This usually means no heating, running water, or bathroom. Very often homes are overcrowded or simply falling down. Many of the houses are in segregated neighborhoods on the outskirts of major cities.
As a result, Roma are caught in the vicious cycle of poverty, where lack of proper housing limits their educational opportunities, ability to learn skills and to earn a decent wage.
Habitat has developed programs in Bulgaria to meet the needs of Roma families. You can also help these families break the cycle of poverty and make the first step towards a brighter future.
Buy a gift this holiday season and help families in Bulgaria. Make in a secure donation in Euros or Dollars today.
