Charity campaign has become an annual tradition in the Supreme Court at the end of the year. However, donations have been raised for children struggling against difficult life. At the end of 2011 judges and court employees donated LVL 614 which was transferred to the Centre of Children and Family Support in Allazi, in Sigulda district.

The centre provides shelter for children of different age, who suffer from violence. Donations of judges and employees of the Supreme Court will help to improve household conditions of centre tenants.

Charity campaigns have taken place in the Supreme Court since 2002. Institution to which donation would be transferred has been chosen according to suggestion of Latvian Children’s Fund. The support of the Supreme Court in previous years was received by Rudzatu special boarding-school, children’s home in Ergeme, children’s social rehabilitation centre “Our home” in Kraslava, children’s and family centre “Dwarf” in Saldus district, sanatorium boarding-school in Raiskums and family crisis centre in Zante.
