OUR MISSIONS

Who are we helping?

TESS Care helps people in need regardless of their origin, sex, gender, nationality and religion. We aim to facilitate access to education for children from disadvantaged backgrounds, including those who cannot continue their education due to financial difficulties, those with illnesses or disabilities and orphans.

By helping children, we are also helping their community and the generation that will follow.
