SOS relies on the kindness and generosity of Canadians to be able to provide a home for the most vulnerable children around the world.
SOS Children's Villages in Pinkafeld
The SOS Children's Village of Pinkafeld, in the province of Burgenland, was founded in 1962. Surrounded by fruit-trees, it is situated on a hill on the outskirts of Pinkafeld. The children attend the local schools. Nearby are several secondary schools, vocational training colleges, technical colleges and a number of small firms.
The SOS Children's Village consists of 13 family houses. Besides the family houses there is a Community Centre, a Village Director's House and a kindergarten, where children of the surroundings are also looked after. The teenagers live at the SOS Youth Facility which is situated near the SOS Children's Village. A few years ago, a Home for Retired Mothers was also established at the SOS Children's Village where retired SOS mothers enjoy their retirement without losing touch with life at the SOS Children's Village.
