Humanitarian aid and projects to ease suffering in Romania. Small charity with a "hands on" approach. Most donations from Jersey Channel Islands.

HOW OUR YEAR USUALLY WORKS:
Throughout the year we send FUNDS. We offer a sponsorship programme to assist those in need of a helping hand. Sponsorship is either for
PENSIONERS - Adopt a Granny scheme for those unable to make meet on a very small pension - some may be medical pensioners rather than old age pensioners. EDUCATION - we believe a good education often offers the opportunity to break the poverty cycle. We help fund homework clubs as well as individual children’s educational needs. FAMILY - we believe in keeping families together whenever possible. The most rewarding reports we can receive will say something along the lines of
“X is so grateful for your help, but now his/her/their circumstances have changed and no longer need your help. Thank you for what you made possible”. Regrettably such reports are few and far between but they do sometimes happen! SENDING HUMANITARIAN AID
As a general rule we collect relief aid from January till September or October (each year may differ so you would need to check). We sort and prepare the aid for shipment to Romania 2 or 3 times a year. The present cost of sending each aid consignment is now under £5000 but over £4000. So donations for transport costs are always appreciated. As the exchange rate varies it is not possible to predict an exact amount. We focus on the CHRISTMAS SHOEBOX APPEAL from September / October till the end of the year.

Thank you Les Quennevais School for the shoeboxes you donated.
I believe it was Year 8 who organised the appeal. You did a good job. It was great to meet you when I came in to tell you about the appeal at assembly and as I said at that assembly these shoeboxes really make a real difference to the recipients.

29/10/2026

Today Thursday 29 October is the closing date for the Mustard Seed Christmas shoeboxes. Please take any remaining filled shoeboxes you wish to donate to the Parish Halls or Les Quennevais Sports Centre or St Helier Methodist Centre today or tomorrow. Our collectors will go to each collection place on Monday to do a final collection.
