In Blaj live 22.000 inhabitants, of whom nearly 15 percent belong to the minority of the Sinti and Roma. Many of them live in poverty and the children often find it difficult to access education.

The Greek-Catholic priest Lucian Moşneagn would like to change this. For years, he stands up for his community Blaj and wants to create a care and meeting place for children and their families.

"I want to help these people get better living conditions and thereby facilitate their integration into our community," he explained.

In this proposed facility, there will be a public bath and the families get the opportunity to wash their laundry here. The center will also be a place where children can learn and play with each other in their spare time. They can listen to music, read or take part in computer training.
