Sobre nosotros

In 1988 Csilla founded the Hungarian Malta Charity Service in Budapest. In 1989 she took the responsabilty for 30,000 refugees from Eastern Germany. Under her leadership, German and Hungarian volunteers from the Malta Charity Service built tent camps for refugees.
She maintained daily contact with the world press, built important relationships on the diplomatic front and made an important contribution to the peaceful fall of the "Iron Curtain".
After 1989 Csilla used this exceptional experience and her international contacts of helpers to collect donations to for the new Democracies. She organised more than 300 trucks annually with medical equipment, hospital beds and clothing for those in need.
In 1991 Csilla set up the charitable Foundation "Osteuropahilfe", which became the "Csilla von Boeselager Foundation" after her death.
