George Hook, Patron of the Comber Foundation: 

 

“Having accompanied volunteers from Comber to Romania, I have witnessed the tireless work they do in trying to close down state run institutions in Giurgiu County. This requires help from you at perhaps the most difficult economic times. Please find a little time in your heart for young adults that perhaps unknowingly will owe you a debt of gratitude for the rest of their lives.”

The Comber Foundation - working to build a better future for children and adults with disabilities in Romania

 
Our vision is that every person with a disability will have full participation and inclusion in society.

Comber Foundation (formerly Comber Romanian Orphanage Appeal) was established by Irish volunteers in 1990 in response to media coverage of the appalling conditions in orphanages in Romania.

Having initially focussed on aid and renovation work in orphanages, we grew to realise the limits of ‘hands – on’ work in Romania. Over the years, we have sought to bring about long-term change through supporting Romanian people and organisations to develop better disability services at local level.
