Empowering Children to Be Seen, Loved & Celebrated
At Delia's Center for Special Needs Children in Bârlad, Romania, we provide education, therapy, and daily care for children with disabilities. In Arizona, we deliver Joy Kits to children in foster care with special needs.
Every child deserves a seat, a sense of belonging, and love — even when systems fail.
Why We Exist
At The Delia Foundation, we believe every child deserves to be seen, supported, and celebrated — no matter where they were born or what challenges they face.
In Bârlad, Romania, we operate Delia's Center for Special Needs Children — a full-day program providing education, nutrition, speech therapy, art therapy, yoga, and emotional support for children with intellectual, physical, and developmental disabilities.
In Arizona, we deliver sensory-friendly Joy Kits to children in foster care with special needs — bringing comfort and courage to kids who need it most.

Step inside a day at the center in Bârlad — where therapy, learning, and laughter come together. This is what filling a chair looks like.
What We Do
What started as a single act of compassion in Romania has grown into a cross-continental mission linking children, families, and supporters through shared humanity.
📚 Educate
At Delia's Center in Bârlad, we provide tutoring, special education support, and creative therapies that help children with disabilities reach their potential. Every lesson builds confidence, connection, and a brighter future.
🌟 Empower
Through Joy Kits, we deliver sensory tools, storybooks, and comfort items to children in foster care with special needs in Arizona — and to children at Delia's Center in Romania. One gift, two continents.
