Main goals of the organization are to create families for children in need of care, providing them with home, SOS mother, SOS brothers and sisters, and give them needed help, thus ensuring safe and fulfilled growth of children. The organization believes that the strongest basis for future of children can be built growing in a family. SOS family, although created artificially, for many children can serve as biological family, because in this family long-term emotional relations with SOS mothers and other members of SOS family can be created.
