Este un centru rezidenţial situat în Munţii Retezat care oferă găzduire pe perioade nedeterminate pentru persoane vârstnice şi fete cu dizabilităţi.“Bethany” House in Hateg was founded in 2003, as a special place for elderly people and handicapped girls and poor children. The project was initiated by Timi Valean, the present administrator of “Bethany” House. He was the one who saw the needs of the elders in Hateg city in 1991.There were numerous financial problems for putting this idea into practice, but the support and necessary funding came from the Evangelistic and Charitable Association Jesus Hope of Romania in order for “Bethany” House project to become real.
“Bethany” House hosts 15 elders and 18 girls that benefit from assistance and care at European standards. Many of them have lost their homes or have been run down by illnesses that did not allow them to take care of themselves.
The costs are supported by the JHOR Association and part of the funds comes from the pensions of the elders of “Bethany” House. They contribute with about 85% of their income, but sums are modest.
