AMARA is a new charity whose name is derived from the Mongolian word that means ‘to comfort'. AMARA connotes a safe emotional journey ‘home' for children who have suffered some of the most terrible ordeals and traumas in their lives.

The children we help often live in orphanages and centres all around the world having experienced ordeals such as abandonment, loss of parents, sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglect, prostitution or having lived on the streets.

There are worthy organisations working very hard to meet the primary needs of the children by providing food, clothes and shelter. Only when these primary needs are being met can AMARA begin to approach their emotional well-being.

AMARA's work is unrivalled because we work to meet the level of needs not addressed by others.

What we do is offer emotional & psychological support and guidance to these children by teaching local staff to walk with them, hand in hand, through a therapeutic journey using safe and established methods. The journey offers them freedom from their past pains and it enables them to heal and to regain balance. They can then continue to grow to reach their highest potential.

Our aim is to grant them the opportunity to reintegrate back into their communities as strong, secure, confident, happy & hopeful individuals.

We are a small organisation and all of our staff are volunteers. We rely entirely on your support to reach these children.
