Liviu and George. Two homeless kids in Brasov, Romania.

All my previous descriptions were about diseases, poverty and hunger. Hardly a surprise - one cannot ignore it. Misery is an integral part of their lives. But there is also brotherhood, comradery and hope.

For a better life. For a better world.


Pictures for editorial use and for the NGO "Helping Hands". Please contact me if you would like to make a donation to this NGO. They offer hot soup, soap, mental and dental assistance and some clothes to the kids. Now they are gathering funds to build a permanent shelter for the homeless kids in Brasov.

i love the way u capture the moment, and actually make the kids look like they have an aura, but i would (and others probably) appreciate it if u would not call them homeless in Romania. It can be misinterpreted by others who don't know that they are a different ethnic group, a minority and that they by far a great hassle for the others. The way they live is not our fault, all those who have helped them were taken advantage of. They have their own lifestyle glue, rape, begging and prostitution, but none of them ever try to get out of that. If they don't try they can't be helped. I understand those who were mad before me, but there's no need to curse, I'm only sad u focused your attention on that particular group and didn't explore the other great sites that country has.
P.s. if u ever go back, try the landscapes and some sightseeing, might help.
