The Association of Myrrh Bearing Women, through its ongoing charitable work, supports over 1,700 families, 750 children and 100 youth with disabilities, all with very low income or no income, across the county Maramures. Their work consists of preparing and delivering hundreds of food packages and clothing to 800 families and 450 children during the Easter and Christmas celebrations, monthly support with food packages to 552 families and 100 youth with disabilities, and organizing recreational activities and events for children. The center is an excellent example of a basically self-supported and funded association solely run by volunteers.
