The death of a four-year-old girl in 1971 was the beginning...
The little girl was killed by her stepfather. Months of physical abuse ended her life. This crime made a handful of people go together and start voluntary, non-political, non-religious and self-supporting organisation called Children’s Rights In Society - BRIS.
Today BRIS is a national association operating from five large cities. Its telephone, The Children’s Help Line (0200-230 230) has a nation wide free-phone number.
In addition BRIS, since 2001, runs a mail service within a community at www.bris.se, where children safely and anonymously get their personal supportive mail answers.
The majority of the helpline-workers are volunteers and the work is funded by donations by private persons and companies.
If you would like to sponsor BRIS through Team Hyperactive - Aconcagua 2004 please use Bankgiro 5254 - 2537 or Postgiro 6323 - 0 to send your donations.
