Our success stories

Here are some of the results we have achieved through our Lift Up! program so far. The content of this section will be continuously updated; we will try to add photos as well wherever possible.Thank you for following the progress of your beneficiary!

Abigail

Although we have supported Abigail together with her grandmother and siblings for many years, we contracted her as an individual beneficiary on the 1st September 2022. Abigail - who has become a grown-up woman throughout the past years - successfully passed her school-leaving final exams in 2023 and has been accepted to the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, where she commenced her architecture studies in September 2023! Financial supports are still welcome as we intend to continuously help her throughout this journey, covering her dormitory and other university-related costs. Many thanks to our supporters for your kind donations!

David

The cooperation between David and Only One Mission commenced on the 4th of January 2022. One of David's goals was to renovate parts of his home. Thanks to our donors and the Lift Up! program, he successfully had his old front door replaced. Not only does his new front door perform way better in terms of thermal insulation, but now his home looks much more aesthetically pleasing from the outside than earlier as well! A big „Thank you!” for each of our supporters!

Ildiko

Ildiko was enrolled in our Lift Up! program on the 1st of September 2022, but our cooperation with the mother in need goes back more than ten years. In the first months of year 2023, donations wired for her through us were sufficient to cover the cost of repairing a burst pipe in her bathroom. The repair cost amounted to 280 000 HUF and the family received a new, well-functioning tap. Many thanks to our supporters!

In February 2024, Only One Mission launched a targeted fundraising campaign for Ildiko. Within a year, it became clear that her home needed a complete plumbing replacement to prevent recurring burst pipes and the additional expenses that would come with them. Such a large-scale project could not have been carried out by the company itself. The fundraising effort raised far more than the target of HUF 400 000, a total of HUF 541 500, thanks to the generosity of 34 supporters. The renovation started in late spring and although the work is time-consuming, we are pleased to report that the bathroom area has been completely renovated. The plumbing in the bathroom and the kitchen has been renewed, and only the tiling of the kitchen remains to be done; as soon as it is 100% ready, we are going to let the public know. Many thanks to our supporters!

Mary

Mary signed the support contract with Only One Mission on the 6th of October 2022 within the framework of our Lift Up! program, however, the collaboration between us has been going on for years. We have completed several successful projects together, which are detailed below:

1. Donations received from our benefactors enabled us to successfully have the front door of their flat (rented from the local Council) replaced in early 2020.

2. The same year, Mary underwent a long-awaited tooth replacement in March; related expenses were covered by donations received from our supporters.

3. Donations received from our benefactors enabled us to successfully have the windows of their flat (rented from the local Council) replaced in late 2020.

4. Upon joining the Lift Up! program, one of Mary's goals was to let her child obtain a driving licence. With the help of our donors, we raised 400,000 HUF, which enabled him to pass his driving test and he is currently doing his driving practice. Many thanks to our supporters!

 5. Mary's other goal was to paint her apartment, for which we raised 300.000 HUF with the help of our Lift Up! program donors. The actual painting took place during the spring season of 2024 (see attached photo). Many thanks to our supporters!
