Let’s support summer camps for children in orphanages together

Dear supporters!

Naerata Ometi MTÜ, in cooperation with other organizations and many wonderful volunteers, has organized several memorable camps for children in orphanages over the years. Although this tradition was paused for a while, thanks to the initiative of our colleague Heiki, this valuable effort has been revived.

This year marks the fourth camp at Päikesenurme. Additionally, two more three-day summer camps and one adventurous camp in Kihelkonna, Saaremaa, are planned. The first summer camp takes place before Midsummer’s Day, and the second at the end of the summer. At the beginning of the year, we also organized the winter Burxi camp.

The camps offer children meaningful time in nature:

doing farm work and hands-on activities,
participating in excursions and meeting professionals (e.g., police officers, rescuers),
enjoying concerts, reading evenings, campfire nights, and night discos,
reading poetry and going to the theatre.

All of this provides children with a valuable break from the urban environment and an opportunity to create wonderful memories.

So far, we have managed to organize camps with our own funds and the help of friends. We’ve been supported by friends from Finland and Norway and companies such as Leibur, Premia, and Rakvere Lihakombinaat, who have supplied us with food. This year, we also hope to involve you – our community and friends who care about children’s well-being.

The total cost for the three camps is approximately €5,000, of which €3,000 is covered by supporters from Finland and Norway. The remaining €2,000 would help cover:

transportation and fuel,
food and accommodation,
tickets to museums, adventure parks, and other attractions,
necessary supplies and first aid equipment,
ferry tickets to Saaremaa.

Every contribution counts. If the full amount is not collected, we will adjust the activities to fit the budget – for example, replacing the adventure park with a nature hike. The main thing is that the camps happen and the children get to experience something special.

Let’s work together to make the children’s summer meaningful and joyful. Children are our future!
