May 2016 - Our Bucharest office has always had a strong team running in support of United Way Romania. But on 15 May, the office shattered all records, boasting the biggest team ever with 17 colleagues participating in the Bucharest International Half-Marathon. They wanted to be part of the fight against malnutrition, which is a serious issue in Romania, with almost 30% of children being either overweight or malnourished. The funds raised will support an offering of sports and nutrition programmes, so these children can be on their way to leading a healthy life.
United Way Romania, a Romanian foundation affiliated with United Way Worldwide, has been our community investment partner in Romania since 2005. Over the years, we have raise funds to support organisations such as Touched Romania, which helps distressed mothers by offering shelter, material aid and moral support, ACSIS, which supports children and their families, and Alternativa 2003, an association assisting young people with intellectual disabilities and their families.
