Our Story
Empowering Lives Through Language and Creativity
Who We Are
HeartfeltEnglish is a Hungarian-registered charity founded by two passionate English teachers, Ágota Székely and Orsolya Szűcs. What began three years ago as a heartfelt mission to give back has grown into a vibrant organization dedicated to supporting children in need.
Our team of committed volunteers provides free online English lessons to children living in care homes, offering them hope and opportunities they might not otherwise have. These children, removed from their original homes due to unsafe conditions, find a safe space to learn, grow, and explore their potential through HeartfeltEnglish.
Our Mission
At HeartfeltEnglish, we believe in the limitless potential of every child. Through English language learning, mentorship, and meaningful connections, we empower our students to discover their talents and embrace their unique abilities—regardless of their family background.
We are committed to creating equal opportunities for children to access quality education, unlock their inner strengths, and break the cycle of poverty. Our mission is to guide them on a journey of self-discovery and growth, fostering a brighter future for themselves and their communities.

The Power of Community
Beyond teaching, we bring creativity and community to life through impactful initiatives. Our fundraising events—like fashion shows, art auctions, and student artwork calendar sales—allow us to sustain our programs and shine a spotlight on our students' talents.
Each year, we host summer camps in Romania, blending English lessons with hands-on creative workshops. These workshops have led to beautiful felted paintings, crafted by the children, which are celebrated in our annual calendars.
At HeartfeltEnglish, we believe in the transformative power of education and creativity to change lives.
