PROFORKIDS CHILDREN IN SOSNITSA
PROFORKIDS STANDS FOR “PROJECTS FOR KIDS”. ProForKids was started in November 1996 by Klaus and Barbara Eckardt. This was a result of the miserable conditions, which they had both seen while living and working in Ukraine in which children with special needs often had to live in children’s homes in Ukraine. The buildings were often in pitiful condition and without sufficient plumbing. The heating regularly broke down, as did the furniture. And any privacy for the kids was non existent. ProForKids intends to structurally improve these living conditions and also contribute to the improvement of the education of deaf children and/or children with poor eyesight. For instance, by teaching them English, they will be better able later in life to be economically independent in the Ukraine society. In the past few years a lot of donors have made it possible for ProForKids to financially support a great number of projects in several children’s homes in Ukraine. Buildings have been renovated, aging furniture and educational material have been replaced by new and modern material and new educational methods have been introduced. Measures which have clearly improved the living conditions and future chances for the children in these children’s homes. The crisis in Ukraine has substantially reduced the already modest financial government support. Consequently the Ukraine charitable institutions are more than ever dependent on private donations. This is the case for the children’s home for deaf children in Sosnitsa. The heating equipment dating back to 1975 urgently needs replacing. The installation regularly breaks down and is very inefficient. This causes children to suffer cold and high heating bills. However, financial means to replace the installation are lacking. ProForKids has promised to financially help the children’s home in Sosnitsa, so that it will be possible to replace the heating equipment before winter sets in. Will you help ProForKids to help the children? The children in Sosnitsa would be very grateful! The management of ProForKids

2. INTRODUCTION DE KRAAL INTERNATIONAL FOR SPORTS AND CHARITY. The next edition of De Kraal International will already be edition number 4. Last year we experimented with an international dressage competition, but this year it is back to the roots with an international jumping of the categories CSI*** for the professionals and a CSI* for the amateurs as we do not want to deny our roots in the Antwerp regional either. At the request and in cooperation with our colleagues from the national Jumping Zandhoven show we have moved to the last weekend of August. From the start we decided besides first class sports to also support the needy in our society. As a result of Victor’s activities and contacts in Ukraine, the choice of region was easy this year. But it was still a challenge to find a project, where you can make a difference and know that the money will be well spent. Therefore we chose an existing project, which our family supported before and about which you can read more in this brochure. Children are often the victims of the cruelties of adults, and with this great project children who are deaf or hard of hearing will still get the chances they deserve and will be able to prepare for future integration into society. Every year De Kraal International strives to be a little more and a little better, both technically for our riders and in the entertainment for our sponsors and visitors. Besides some smaller adjustments, we have again enlarged the main arena, enabling riders and their horses to let go even more, and our sponsors to enjoy the sports even more up close. And in order to offer a platform to our partner breeders to sell their foals, we decided to organize a foal auction for the first time this year, Foal Auction presented by Stud 111, which guarantees the fascinating spectacle of buying and selling to the spectators, and offers interested buyers an opportunity to make interesting purchases in the heart of Belgium’s horse breeding industry. With your presence you are showing your passion for the sports and your heart for the less fortunate. Thanks to your support we unify two worlds, of people and animals, who both deserve chances, each with their own possibilities and limitations. We welcome all of you!
