Joyful work in the Philanthropy Hospitaltranslated

November 14, 2026 · 1 min read

With the blessing of the Most Reverend Father Dr. Irineu, the Archbishop of Craiova and the Metropolitan of Oltenia, the parish priest Gabriel Sorescu organizes the annual Toy Fair philanthropic project at Brândușa Parish to teach children the joy of good deeds and the importance of helping others. Following what was acquired in the most recent edition this year, on 13.11.2026, the parish volunteers offered one hundred packages to the children hospitalized in the Pediatric Department of the Filantropia Hospital in Craiova and contributed to the purchase of medical equipment worth over 3,000 euros.

The action was carried out with the support of the management of Filantropia Hospital, represented by Dr. Elena Ungureanu, the director of the medical unit, and Prof. Dr. Liliana Anghelina. Through the involvement of the medical staff and volunteers of the Brândușa Parish, this endeavor was transformed from a spiritual work into a medical act born of love and appreciation.

Fr. Mircea Nincu
