In November 2002 started the activity its first branch in the town of Sfantu Gheorghe which began the socio-medical home care activity in the town and the surrounding villages.

Diakonia Christian Foundation, Targu-Mures Branch is functioning since February 2006. The establishment of Tirgu-Mures branch was necessary because: 1. the developing of  the activity of the foundation, 2.  since 1992 in Tirgu-Mures is functioning a Nurse School founded by the reformed church. The office of the branch is situated in Bod Peter Charity and Educational Centre.

Our activity is focused basically on home care, but near this basic home care activity Diakonia Foundation from Tirgu-Mures have realized other successes as well: mobilization of the pupils from the Nurse School, postgraduate trainings, administration of other programs.

We also mention that Diakonia Christian Foundation, Tirgu-Mures branch have had organized postgraduate course for unemployed women and training courses for nurses with the topic of home care and other medical themes.
