Our Romanian staff members make RHM what it is. They are critical to the day-to-day operations and impact the lives of our foundation members daily.

Mirela started working at a kindergarten for children with disabilities after graduating with her degree in Psychology. In 2008, she started working as a collaborating psychologist at the RHM Foundation. Even though the time spent with the beneficiaries and their parents was quite short, she got attached to them. For over 15 years now, she has enjoyed them and grieved with them. She has supported them mentally and advised them when they needed help. In September 2022, she created a creative workshop with some of the parents and has made various items to help raise funds for the foundation. Many beautiful objects have been created and many hours were spent together. She also plans to start a parent support group, believing that by working together, they will get to know each other better and help each other more.
