Be Part of the Story:
Help the Next Generation Rise in Slovakia.

For generations, the Romani people in Eastern Europe have faced deep poverty and systemic racism — often treated as outcasts and denied opportunity. But in a small Slovak village, a young mother named Nikola is breaking that cycle. Once a little girl who came to Kids Club searching for hope, she was loved and discipled through many challenging years of pain by faithful GPPD Associates Charles, Janet & Tina Baldis and other Slovak workers.

Now she’s leading gatherings for young Romani children, showing them that God has a different future for them. This Giving Tuesday, your gift helps multiply stories like Nikola’s — empowering local leaders to bring Christ’s healing, dignity, and hope to communities long overlooked and oppressed.

The program is currently serving around 17-20 kids aged 6-11 in the Young Kids Club and 20 kids aged 12-15 in the older group, meeting every weekday after school at 3 PM.
