Excited to have just joined this amazing not-for-profit organisation as a #Trustee. This is my first volunteer Board appointment in my 20-year career in the not-for-profit sector, and what an organization to support. They are currently recruiting for a new Events Fundraising Officer to help deliver their captivating events program – including their fabulous sounding Swapping Seats event – where politicians get to interview the newsreaders for once… https://lnkd.in/gppf7_kH Founded by Mark and Caroline Cook in 1994 after reading about the plight of a group of children, struggling to survive in Sarajevo’s main orphanage at the height of the Bosnian War. “The children themselves guided us to the heart of our mission – they desperately wanted and needed to be loved.” Caroline Cook, co-founder of Hope and Homes for Children Fast forward almost 30 years - the organisation’s ambition is to be the catalyst for the global elimination of institutional care for children. Getting children back into families: 5.4 million children are trapped in orphanages across the world. The shocking truth is that these are almost always children who have or could have, a family to look after them. To love them. However, every day, a broken system puts pressure on parents to give up their children. They'll be safe from war, can escape poverty, and will get an education - false promises. I believe strongly, as do Hope and Homes for Children that no child should have to live without love and family. It is well-researched and demonstrated that orphanages harm children. The majority of those who experience life inside an institution suffer violence, abuse, and neglect. Across the world, these institutions are often financed by private donors and what can be referred to as ‘’poverty porn’’, driven by perhaps well-meaning but misguided charitable work. However, it is VITAL to understand that this is not always the case. Sometimes the creation and longevity of an orphanage are the result of exploitative opportunists and unethical business practices. Either way, they shouldn't exist; all children deserve to live in a home with a family, and I am absolutely honoured to be part of their governance board.
