We first thought of children,” Mariana Iuga, a representative of the Council in this mission told journalists on Monday. “It's less than a month till the new scholar year begins, and children from the flood-stricken village remained without stationery, clothes and footwear.

In addition, the parents of those 35 children have got by 100 lei. The World Romanian Council goes on helping the flood stricken people from Moldova.
