What is NASCI ?
NASCI,
Centre for Infant Aid, is a Brussels based non-profit organisation
dedicated to helping pregnant women, mothers with children facing
particularly difficult living conditions and who do not have the means
to satisfy the basic vital needs of their family.
Over the last years, poverty has increased significantly.
The figures speak for themselves: in a big city like Brussels, around
20% of the population lives in poverty, mostly mothers and children.
Poverty and exclusion are extremely complex and need a
multiple approach. With a unique approach in Brussels, NASCI offers
professional support based on education and on actions coming straight
from the heart.
NASCI is a ‘solidarity house’ for mothers and
families where compassion prevails over pity; a bit of relief in
difficult moments. By helping mothers, we try to make the children
happier.
The organisation ensures that its aid is easily
accessible for everyone and of high quality. With a multicultural and
tolerant approach, this democratic and pluralist organisation does not
make any difference between cultures, religions or ethnic groups. The
happiness of children prevails over everything else!
NASCI is subsidised by the ‘Vlaamse
Gemeenschapscommissie’ (Flemish Community Commission) and by the
municipality of Schaerbeek.
NASCI wants to bring back a smile on the faces of the
mothers and their children and wants to revive hope in difficult
moments.
