C4C 2007 Mid-Year Report: Breaking all Records! Tallying up the score for the first two quarters of 2007, C4C’s humanitarian arm, the ROBIN HOOD program, surpassed the 30.000.000,- Kč mark on aid distributed to needy and struggling institutions with resident children! Institutions receiving aid were located in the Czech Republic, neighboring Slovakia and Bosnia.
„This is definitely a record for any 2nd quarter result in our history“, says an enthusiastic Vaclav Cermak, Chance 4 Children (C4C) senior project manager. „ROBIN HOOD has proven its sustainability in the 10 years since its inception and it made a decisive difference in the lives of thousands of children over the years.“ And it just keeps getting better!

2007 also marked the launch of Chance 4 Children Slovakia! (For more click here) To kick off the new association on the right footing, the Slovak team already facilitated a major aid shipment with badly needed new shoes and trendy clothing items for needy children in Slovakia, serving altogether 13 institutions. Total incurred savings for the institutions amounted to 10.5 million SK!
All in all, during the first two quarters of 2007, C4C received a total of 52 pallets of brand new clothing, shoes and baby carriages, mainly from Scandinavia, in five separate shipments. That’s a stunning amount of goods! It goes without saying, that the collecting, shipping, transporting, sorting and final distributions of these items required substantial funding and resources. Resources C4C doesn't always have available and at arm’s length. So, with this in mind, in closing, we would like to take the opportunity to relate a heartfelt “Thank You” to all the precious folks and companies who specifically pledged their support and helped us to take care of these monumental shipments and tasks during the first half of the year:
DHL Express
HVB Bank, Praha
Pfizer Czech Republic
Emco spol s.r.o.
Lazne Frantiskovy Lazne a.s.
Tereza Vrankova, GTS Novera
Strojservis, Iveco, Horni Pocernice
On behalf of the hundreds of children who now have new and decent wardrobes and of the institutions which can now invest the incurred savings of 30 million Kč into educational programs and improving the infrastructure of their homes: Thank you all for caring! We couldn’t have done it without you!
