Background

The Loza Foundation charity was established in 2017 by Sabina Grubbeson as a reaction to the vulnerable, exposed situations she witnessed while she travelled around in North Macedonia and investigated the current state of affairs at various orphanages and institutions. The foundation was established with the aim and intention of defending the rights of vulnerable people, allowing them to feel safe and secure and giving them the option of a longer, healthier life. Loza will work to improve the living standards of children and adults living in inhumane, undignified conditions. For a social sustainable development in the poorest parts of Europe.
