- Who we are
SOS Children’s Villages of BiH is a humanitarian organisation that takes care of children and young people without parental care and gives them a chance for a happy childhood and a better future. In SOS families, with brothers, sisters and SOS parents, children grow up in a family-based environment with parental love, because every child deserves to belong somewhere, to be loved and safe.
SOS Children’s Villages of BiH have been operating in BiH since 1994 and are part of SOS Children’s Villages International, international organisation that has been operating for more than 70 years in 136 countries around the world, on 5 continents.
Transparent systems of reporting and monitoring the use of funds enable us to ensure that the donated funds are used in the most efficient way.
Key policies and guidelines enable us to use our resources effectively, meet legal requirements and learn from our experience so we can do the best for children.
The employees of SOS Children’s Villages in BH actively contribute to the development of our Organisation with their creative ideas, revealing a new perspective on things. We truly believe that our different opinions encourage progress and strengthen community – the one in which we achieve our common goals with our different ideas and creative freedom.
