Our family approach in SOS Children’s Village is based on four principles: Every child needs a mother. Together with their brothers and sisters, children grow naturally in their home, in a supportive village setting. We help them to shape their future. We ensure that children live as active members of society according to their culture and religion. We help children recognize and express their personal abilities, interests and skills. We ensure that children acquire the educational and professional skills they need to become successful and contributing members of society.
