Fracarita Belgium is the Belgian NGO for development cooperation of the international Congregation of Brothers of Charity. Since its inception in 1967, under the name Caraes, we have supported the Congregation's projects worldwide in the fields of mental health care, care for people with disabilities and education.
In the mid-2000s, an international umbrella organization for international cooperation, Fracarita International, was established because of the increasing internationalization of the international cooperation of the Brothers of Charity and the associated challenges for the Belgian NGO. In 2013, the name Caraes was changed to Fracarita Belgium by analogy with the international structure. Fracarita Belgium is an integral part of Fracarita International and operates as a regional fundraising office for Belgium. From our offices in Ghent, we facilitate financial and material support and access to knowledge and expertise for initiatives of care, education and well-being in currently 18 countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
