The BYSOL foundation has completed its Christmas fundraiser for children of political prisoners. The target amount was 27,400 euros. As of 22:50 on January 6, 27,623 euros had been raised.
BYSOL planned to collect 100 euros for each child. Payments have already been received by 134 children out of 266.
“The adult world has already managed to cause these children too much harm: instilling anxiety, depriving them of familiar care, forcing them to endure separation from their closest loved ones. This is something no child should ever have to face. It is precisely we, together with you, who can show that the adult world is not only cruel.
This fundraiser was created so that families of political prisoners receive support, and each child receives a sign of attention and hope. We are accepting applications from parents who have suffered from repression, as well as from those who are currently caring for the children of political prisoners,” the foundation said.
