We are so proud of the young Roma teens, who are growing and flourishing in the midst of a culture that is inundated with the risks of teen marriage, and sex trafficking. All of our teens had already faced and confronted trafficking already, by the age of 15.
By sponsoring a teen, you directly help break the cycle of trafficking, and prevent teen marriage. You make it possible for a teen to go to school, and receive food, medication, love and protection. Your sponsorship also helps to fund the teen refuge that provides a place of safety in emergency situations they find themselves in with trafficking and abuse.
Deciding to sponsor a teen is only the start of your sponsorship journey! The teens are always so excited to hear from their sponsors and it means a lot to know that they are cared for!
Read below for the different ways that you can connect and stay in touch with the teens:
- Writing letters
- Sending emails
- Visit on your own or with a team
- Sending packages (some sponsors like to send birthday presents, etc)
- Visit our Facebook, Twitter or Instagram feeds for regular updates & photos of FMNs work
Once you begin your sponsorship journey you will start receiving:
- Quarterly updates & pictures on their progress and development
- Annual videos of the teens
Bringing a Team
"This year our team, small in numbers, LARGE in heart and love for the ROMA, spent our entire time in Tinca with Forget Me Not Ministries and our hearts will never be the same"
Sponsoring a Child
"I am about to begin my second year of partnership with FMN and could not be more excited. You are sowing into the lives of people that will cause change and raise up a new generation of hope in Romania for change"
Getting Involved with FMN
"FMN strive and are succeeding at empowering and equipping the people they are working with. This is not a foundation who is providing temporary band aids but who is restoring hope, "
Sponsoring a Child
"Sponsoring Alex has been one of the most fulfilling things in my life. After meeting him, and falling in love with him, being able to be a part of his life even when I cannot physically be with him is comforting to me"
