David Popovici, a double world champion and Olympic swimming champion, has raised over EUR 160,000 in just 10 days to help build a family home for children with special needs, exceeding the initial target of EUR 115,000.
The initial amount represented a quarter of the money needed to build a family home for 11 children with medium to severe special needs from the last orphanage in District 5, Bucharest. The campaign was launched alongside NGO Hope and Homes for Children.
