Comber Foundation

Comber has worked since 1992 to improve the lives of Romania’s most vulnerable citizens-young people with disabilities living in its notorious institutions.   It is now almost 20 years since the fall of Ceausescu and the images that flooded our TV screens of hundreds of thousands of abandoned children.  

Over the last 20 years, childcare services in Romania have improved.  However, the children of the 90s are now young adults and they continue to live in appalling conditions in institutions across rural Romania and other countries in the region. These most vulnerable young people are now the primary focus of Comber’s work
