ProAct Traders Believes In Giving Back
This is the camp (in Badeni, Romania) that Jerry and Scott (and a lot of other supporters) built in Romania.
(Click the graphic left to see large view-then hit your escape key to come back) We both used to do live Christian rock and roll concerts in Romania and we started right after the 1990 revolution. All of us at at ProAct Traders have been active in overseas mission work since that time. During that time we have helped 7 orphanages, bought land and built a summer camp for orphans, underprivileged children, girls "at risk" for human trafficking and gypsies. We also do business conferences in the University system in Bucharest, Romania to help the organization CRU and
Lead Impact . That has evolved into hands on projects that utilize our full time couple (Vio and Estera Grigore) who manage the camp and oversees the Christmas gift project as well as our personal speaking at the University level in Bucharest and business leader conferences.
If you would like to visit and help out we would love to help you make that a reality in your life - just contact us.
Our Giving Projects are below
We have found that our traders would like a place to move a small amount of their money that will have a huge difference and know that it actually got there and made a difference. 100% of all money raised goes to the camps - no money is taken out for admin costs. Even the wire fee is donated! We do two (2) fundraisers per year.
A Romanian summer camp project and our Romanian Christmas Present project in cooperation with Samaritans Purse. ProAct Traders takes a portion of our earnings each year and we match our traders gifts so that we can impact more people.
Our yearly projects are detailed below and are archived for you to show you that YES we can make a difference!
2021 Romanian Summer Camps
You may not know it, but ProAct traders owns a camp in rural Romania (Transylvania) and each year we take hundreds of underprivileged children to a summer camp. It costs about $70 per person to take these kids through a week camp. It has changed many of their lives forever. In fact, we are now in the second generation of children and our camp counselors are actually kids who attended the camp when they were young. There are no admin costs taken out and even the wire transfer is donated.
How can we do it?
Glad you asked. ProAct Traders sponsors these children with the help of our traders. This year we have a private donor who will match your gift up to $500. ProAct Traders will also match the first $3000 given by traders so you give $35 you created $70 and sent a child to camp. Wouldn’t it be great to know that your gift actually made a difference and did not line the pockets of some giant organization? That campers actually got the benefit of your donation.
We raised $500 from a private donor and $2700 from our traders. Jerry and I matched the $2700 with $3000 for a total of $6200 for the camp. Thanks to all who helped us.
Here are some pictures from the camps Click here
2020 Romanian Christmas Project
Every year we receive as many as ten thousand presents from Samaritan's Purse which are then distributed to underprivileged children in rural Romania. These presents go to small villages, orphanages (we add a pizza party at each of these), gypsy camps and to children who will never get a present at all unless we can get one in their hands.
How can we do it?
Glad you asked. ProAct Traders sponsors and fills hundreds of volunteers cars up with gas to get these delivered in the mountains of Transylvania. Gas is $7.00 a gallon and typically 1 gallon of gas represents 23% of an average Romanians daily salary. As you can see, unless we help this project will not take place.
We raised $2850 from Traders THANK YOU!!!! and Jerry and I matched and added a little. Total to Romania with NO ADMIN COSTS $5,850.00

2020 Romanian Summer Camps
Click graphic below to make full size then esc to come back
This year is going to be different with Covid 19. So we have decided to do lots of day camps and not overnights. Easier to control social distancing. On the one hand it lowers some costs ( eating (only 1meal a day) and snacks) but raises them on the other; daily transportation! We hope it is a wash.
You can help! Jerry and I will match the first $4000 raised to take these disadvantaged kids, orphans and gypsy's to camp. 100% of the funds go directly to the camp - no Admin fees are taken out and the wire transfer is donated by Buckner International. So pony up and help us.
Here are some pictures from this summer’s camp;

Thanks to all who helped us in the Romanian Camp project. We received $2,230 from traders and Jerry and I matched. We committed to $4000 as a match so we wired $6230 to Romania.
2019 Romanian Christmas Project
Every year we receive as many as ten thousand presents from Samaritan's Purse which are then distributed to underprivileged children in rural Romania. These presents go to small villages, orphanages (we add a pizza party at each of these), gypsy camps and to children who will never get a present at all unless we can get one in their hands.
How can we do it?
Glad you asked. ProAct Traders sponsors and fills hundreds of volunteers cars up with gas to get these delivered in the mountains of Transylvania. Gas is $7.00 a gallon and typically 1 gallon of gas represents 23% of an average Romanians daily salary. As you can see, unless we help this project will not take place.
We raised $2080 from traders and Jerry and Scott matched that for the total of $4080

ProAct Traders matched the first $2000 given by traders so you gave $20 you created $40 of gas and pizza parties. NO ADMIN costs are taken out and even the wire is donated!
Well we were able to raise $1370 of donations from Traders for our Romanian Christmas project. Quite a bit less than in years past, but we are grateful for those who contributed and we know that our Romanian volunteers will stretch it as far as they can. Jerry and I matched this amount with $2,000 so we will be wiring $3, 370.00.
We want to thank all of you who helped us in this very special project and know that your gift large or small will make a huge difference in the lives of so many underprivileged children this Christmas season.

Tanners Mission in Rural Romania
They rescue the worst of the worst from state run hospitals and take them home, feed them, educate them (to the best of their abilities) and give them a life undreamed of before. These are the children with Cerebral Palsy, and major mental and physical handicaps that are simply warehoused until they die. They are neglected, in poor health and most were never even held while they were babies. Unless rescued, the girls end up with a worst fate (as you can imagine). We did a camp for them this year at our camp in Transylvania - WOW!

Jerry and Ulli Lillard: Czech Republic
The Czech Republic is the most atheistic nation of Europe. There are far less than 1% Bible believing Christians in this country. This generation doesn’t understand the validity of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and they reject the organized Church. Because of this there is a growing drug culture, a 67% divorce rate, poverty is on the increase and people are beginning to look for answers.
So we are using tools that will speak to this generation of Czechs:
- One such tool is we have started this Community center “Vysocanska Life Center” and through it we can reach families, youth with no perspective, a good cross section of society. We use everyday programs like fitness and wellness etc. to create a community of people interested in 3 things we all have in common: Physical Health, Emotional Health and Spiritual Health
- We teach English to students and this gives us an opportunity to interact "One on One"
- We are highly involved with the city in our area creating activities for children and youth. Giving new perspectives and hope through our Kids Club
- Our church reaches out to the gypsy community and a third of our church is Roma gypsy.
- We are reaching out to the hurting of the city of Prague as well through programs like “Celebrate Recovery”.
We do not charge the community for any of the above - we do ask that they make a donation to defray the costs. As you can imagine, it is never enough. Thank you for helping us reach a modern atheistic nation.

Because of this there is a growing drug culture, a 67% divorce rate, poverty is on the increase and people are beginning to look for answers.
So we are using tools that will speak to this generation of Czechs:
We do not charge the community for any of the above - we do ask that they make a donation to defray the costs. As you can imagine, it is never enough. Thank you for helping us reach a modern atheistic nation.
