What we do Due to past and ongoing conflicts in the North-Kivu region as well as the dramatic health situation, many children loose their parents either due to the armed conflict or diseases. Our mission is to provide shelter to children who have no one to care for them and provide them with basic nutrition, health care and education. Where we are The Paida Orphanage is located in the city of Beni, in the North-Kivu district of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, neighboring Uganda and Rwanda to the east. Who we are The orphanage was created in 1929 and is currently being managed by 2 sisters from the order of the “Soeur Oblates de l’Assomption” supported by three nurses. Further sisters manage a hospital and a school. Early 2010, the orphanage has been visited regularly by Marie-Laure de Quina and Daniel Hoff, two european individuals who committed to support the orphanage until at least 2016 with financial contributions and ongoing fund raising. The association PaidaOrphanage In the summer of 2010 Marie-Laure de Quina and Daniel Hoff visited the orphanage in Congo and decided to create and association back in Europe. This was done on January 2011 in Switzerland. The aim of the association is to promote the work of the sisters in order to gather and centralize any financial help towards the orphans. The statutes of the association as well as all the financial and yearly reports are available upon request under [email protected]
