The Fiți Buni Association
Să îmbrăcăm un copil de Paști!
Every year
“Let us dress a child for Easter!”: new clothes and shoes at Easter for children from families in need. A minibus full of children goes shopping, and each child chooses their own clothes.
These are the years from 2020 on — since the campaigns have also been run through the Fiți Buni Association, whose president is Nicoleta Iagăru — and the years in which her name appears in the campaign’s sources. The association calls her husband, Father Ion Iagăru, the initiator of its projects; the campaign’s whole history, from the first edition, with its photographs and press, is on his site.
