Caty and Steffi looking at the land for the first time, Caty is checking the papers
When the mayor of Budila offered us a small building to start an After School Program, we had no idea how this program would change lives. We have seen children grow in their education, in their knowledge of God and of life.
We are often asked by other parents if their children can join the program, but due to limited space we have had to say no. The vision for a new building is a vision for a future for many children. Please partner with us through prayer and financial support, together:
WE’RE BUILDING HOPE!

About Our Project Manager
Nick was born and raised not far from Brasov, Romania and has always said that Brasov is where his heart is. Nick is happily married to Rosie Dobrota, a volunteer herself with FFR. Together they have 4 children and their entire life revolves around providing the best Christian and academic education for them.
Nick had a long career working on board luxury cruise ships and has traveled the world which in turn gave him a very good perspective of how things are done in different parts of the world.
Having managed several businesses throughout the years and having been involved in a few big and small construction projects, gave Nick a good understanding of how to efficiently get things done and where to find solutions when needed.
Nick’s understanding of Romania’s building environment and business practices fits with his role of Project Manager for the Budila Educational Center, a project which he considers to be a noble endeavor.
