TACC donated £20,000 to some great causes in Vilnius, the money will be spent on bringing a little happiness and fun to the children’s lives.
Childrens Care Home ''Gile''
This home provides care for orphaned children aged 1-18 as well as temporary care for children from unstable and socially disadvantaged families. They have told us they would love to get modern TV equipment, something like home entertainment set. Our donations will be used to provide:
Vilnius City Children’s Home for disabled children
This home next door to the orphanage was in desperate need of a decent outdoor play area for the disabled children. Our donation will be used to provide a basketball court and a small football pitch and goal posts.
The Centre for the Blind and Partially Sighted
The Centre provides education and accommodation for blind and severely visually impaired children of different ages from all over Lithuania. Often the kids are from socially disadvantaged families, making them even more vulnerable. Some of the kids are very talented, but they badly lack funds for a variety of activities and social programmes and our support will make a big difference to them. Our donations will be used to provide day trips, Braille books and other important games and toys that help children with sight difficulties.
And lastly, In Kaunas, TACC funded the purchase match tickets and scarfs for 140 local orphans to allow them to go to the Lithuania vs Scotland match.
