“The direct, tangible impact. The team on the ground works directly with the children and families. You can see progress in each individual child – and how these changes set larger developments in motion within their environment.”
Sara Ronzoni
Fundraising & Communications
“Every child deserves a chance, regardless of where they grow up. At Kinderland I can help ensure that children in Moldova have a safe place where they are seen and can flourish.”
Dr. Georg Burger-Scheidlin, LL.M.
Board of the Foundation, Structure and Legal Affairs
“I see how Kinderland gives children hope and self-confidence. How entire families are strengthened. This direct, tangible impact is what inspires me.”
Maximilian Schönfeldt
Board of the Foundation, Budget, Finance and Controlling
“Giving hope to children in rural Moldova – hope for a life beyond poverty, neglect, and lack of prospects.”
Wolfgang Dibiasi
Board of the Foundation
“Concrete help for children in Europe’s poorest country. When you give children protection, education, and real prospects, you are not only strengthening the individual child – you are strengthening an entire society.”

Oleg Diordiev
President, Chișinău
“Supporting and fostering children from families in difficult life situations is something I care deeply about. Kinderland gives me the opportunity to make a difference and help shape an environment where children feel safe, receive education, and opportunities to develop.”
Loredana Cogilniceanu
Assistant to the President
“I want to contribute to a mission with real social impact. I am motivated by the opportunity to bring my organisational skills into an environment focused on supporting people who need help.”
Svetlana Constantinov
Social Educator
“I care about the future of children and believe that every child deserves attention, support, and equal opportunities. Here I feel that I am making a real difference in children’s lives.”
Olga Caraus
Head of Children’s Centre, Pîrîta
“I firmly believe that every child deserves the chance to grow up in an environment where they are supported and understood. For me, this work is not just a job – it is my mission. The joy of the children and their daily progress are my greatest motivation.”
Viorica Damaschin
Social Educator
“My motivation is to support children in vulnerable life situations and to contribute to their personal and educational development. I am convinced that every child has the right to equal opportunities, and my commitment at the centre is my way of having a positive influence on their lives.”
Tina Miron
Psychologist
“I know that a child who has not truly been seen carries that experience for a long time. At Kinderland I have the opportunity to be that stabilising and supportive figure – not just a professional, but a person who believes that the therapeutic relationship itself is the most powerful instrument for change.”
Silvia LefTer
Social Worker
“I want to make a real difference in the lives of children who need support, and to help create an environment in which they feel safe and valued.”
