Message from Cry in the Dark:

As we have watched the terrible events unfold in the Ukraine we have been compelled to do our part and stand with the people of Ukraine.

We are blessed to have a building like Casa Albert and we now want to make it a safe space to accommodate those people who are being forced to flee their homes and seek refuge in Romania.

We aren't sure how long our doors will need to be open, or what those arriving will have, but we know we need to be good stewards and share what we have, we will do our best to meet all social, emotional and physical needs for these refugees for as long as they need us, but we do need you to help make that happen.

If you can give to make it possible for us to make these people as comfortable as possible we would be incredibly grateful. All funds given on this page will be ring fenced directly for the support of the refugee's arriving at Casa Albert.

Thank you
