We want to thank all of our supporters dearly - without you, the Domari Society would not exist the way it does. Our special gratitude goes to Kinderpostzegels, the Dom Research Center, the Domari Society Board and the Diakonie Wuerttemerg. Further we thank NEM Netherland, Vrienden van Domari, the Heinrich Boell Stiftung and the Global Fund for Women for their support.
Children's Music Project
February 23, 2016
We were pleased to welcome visitors from the Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Mission to the Domari Center. We were offered to let Domari children join the weekly music class. As the children are crazy about music, we took the chance and went with them to the FELM. After seeing how happy they were, we decided to come every week. The children are doing sports, playing on the playground and as a highlight making music in the studio in small groups.
