SOS Children's Villages Greece / Paidika Choria Sos Ellados

SOS Children’s Villages is an international non-governmental organisation founded by Hermann Gmeiner in Tyrol, Austria, in 1949.

SOS Children's village builds families for children in need, works for children who are orphaned, abandoned or whose families are unable to care for them; gives these children the opportunity to build lasting relationships within a family. The family approach in the SOS Children’s Village is based on four principles: Each child needs a mother, and grows up most naturally with brothers and sisters, in their own house, within a supportive village.
