About us
Morning Tears rebuilds the world for children who lost their own
Morning Tears rebuilds the world for children who have suffered or are suffering heavy emotional pain.
We focus particularly on:
- children whose parents are in prison
- children whose parents have been sentenced to death
- children who have been abused or neglected
- orphans
- children who haven´t been registered at birth, and thus have no rights
- street children
Morning Tears operates since 1999 on an informal basis without legal structure. However, in March 2005 Morning Tears became a formal non-profit organisation registered under Belgian Law. Currently, Morning Tears has offices in Belgium, Spain and China.
Morning Tears is run entirely by volunteers. These volunteers are mostly professionals from the social sector or development aid workers, although we also have journalists and engineers in our group.
The running costs of Morning Tears are kept very low, so that donations can go almost entirely to the children in need.
