On June 23rd, Fundación ANAR officially joined AMBER Alert Europe. With Fundación ANAR joining, AMBER Alert Europe now brings together 37 official organisations, public authorities, and business entities from 23 countries to aid the search for missing children in Europe.
“We are delighted to have Fundación ANAR on board”, says Frank Hoen, Chairman and Founder of AMBER Alert Europe. “I have closely followed the organisation’s hard work to improve the wellbeing of minors such as the Only for Children campaign. I am confident that with combined forces we can make Europe a safer place for our children.”
Silvia Moroder, President of Fundación ANAR: “We are really pleased to reach this collaboration agreement with AMBER Alert Europe as it represents a further step in our mission of helping missing minors and their families. We know that the phenomenon of missing children is still unknown and complex and all efforts are important. Each case is unique and singular and deserves our best attention. We are confident that this alliance will bring more effective help to our children as we strive for the same goal.”
