Around 150,000 Romanian families are currently living in poverty conditions, without adequate heating, no running water, overcrowded conditions, no bathroom or simply their house is falling down around them. Since average families cannot afford to buy new homes, many families live in their parents’ houses, making overcrowding a primary issue of poor living conditions. With low salaries and getting a credit from a bank, it’s a difficult for families to be able to escape their living situations without the help of an organization such as Casa Draga Casa.
