"Dorca" is a Christian foundation which aims to meet the spiritual and material needs of those who live around us and to challenge and encourage others to do the same.
It was founded in 1990 by a group of Christians from churches of various denominations. The foundation is non-political and interdenominational. Its headquarters are situated at: str. Stefan cel Mare Phone/fax: 30-526258. The president of the foundation is Orest Onofrei. He and his wife, Christina, together with some others, are the founders of this foundation. In Acts 9:39 we read about a disciple from Joppa named Dorcas "who was always doing good and helping the poor." We were inspired by this disciple and so named the foundation "Dorca", since our goals are almost the same.
We are active in four areas: 1. Spiritual:
2. Educational:
3. Resources
We could never reach our goals in our own strength. We are grateful for our friends, brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ, who have supported and encouraged the ministry.
Over the years they have donated various types of goods or raised money for specific projects (e.g. "Land for the poor"). We are legally permitted to use 10% of the value of donated goods, which are sold in our shop, to cover other expenses. Support for our projects has also came from Romanians, including Onofrei Vladimir and Margareta, Ilie and Viorica Grigorean, Danu and Gina Onofrei and Costica Scheul.
