No parent in Krimulda should raise a child alone.

We are a volunteer-led association of parents, teachers, social workers and psychologists. Since 2009 we have run parenting groups, youth clubs, crisis counselling and material aid drives for families across Krimulda municipality and the wider Rīga region.

Our mission

Strong families are built quietly, week after week

We believe most families in difficulty do not need rescuing — they need a warm room, a trained listener, practical knowledge and neighbours who show up. Our work is deliberately unglamorous: a Tuesday evening parenting circle in the Ragana community hall, a psychologist's hour paid for so a mother in crisis does not have to choose between therapy and groceries, a box of notebooks delivered before 1 September.

Everything we do is governed by our members' general meeting, delivered mostly by volunteers, and reported publicly once a year.

Recent activities

February 2026

Winter parenting intensive in Ragana

Twenty-eight parents completed our six-evening course on emotional regulation and boundaries with children aged 2–10. Childcare was provided on site by our youth volunteers so both parents could attend.

December 2025

Christmas parcels for 214 families

Together with local farms, the Krimulda parish social service and two Rīga businesses, we packed and delivered food and gift parcels to low-income households and foster families across the municipality.

October 2025

Youth creative club moves to a larger room

Demand doubled in a year. Our Saturday club for 7–14 year-olds now runs two shifts — woodwork and ceramics in the morning, drawing and photography after lunch.

Family stories

Told with permission, names changed

I moved back to my mother's house with two children and no work. The group did not fix that. But for two hours every week I was not the only one struggling, and someone explained what benefits I could actually apply for.
Ilze, mother of two, Krimulda parish
Our son stopped speaking after the divorce. Ten funded sessions with the psychologist were the turning point. We could never have paid for that ourselves in the first year.
Jānis, father, Lēdurga
I came as a volunteer to help with crafts and stayed four years. Half the point of the youth club is that the children have an adult who is simply glad to see them on Saturday.

There is always a place at the table

Become a member, give a monthly gift, donate school supplies, or offer two hours of your Saturday. Every route matters and all of them are open to people outside Krimulda.
