Help adopted kids with special needs get education

Dear friend,

Thank you very much for your trust and support of our project! You have helped the children to get education by helping us to pay for their school. Amongst others, you have helped to Dima, a 9 years old boy, who has got his only chance for education by studying in a private school.

Dima is a charming boy with bright gray eyes. After living in an asocial family, full of hunger and deprivation, and subsequent lonely existence in an orphanage, he has a great luck to find a new loving family who supports him much.

Sad to say, Dima has a hyperactive child syndrome. His brain is functioning in a way that it’s very hard to Dima to keep sitting at the same place and to hold his attention during the lessons without constant and friendly control by an adult and without his individual participation.

An attempt to study at a state school, where normally there are 30 pupils in the same class, has turned Dima’s and his parents’ lives into a real hell. “Every day I came to school to listen to the director or Dima’s teachers to talk about my son. Every day they told me, my boy was not like everyone else: he walked around the classroom during the lessons, disturbed everyone, didn’t learn the lessons, didn’t control his emotions and was aggressive to his classmates and himself. It was a daily torture which pumped all of my power and energy,” Dima’s mother confesses.

Fortunately, last year they found a private school that was able to work with hyperactive children. “Everything has changed,” Dima’s grandma says, “It’s now very rare that anybody complains about my grandson. He does the most of his lessons at school and at last we have an opportunity to do our family affairs”.

Thanks to you and your support, Dima was able to continue his studies at this marvelous school during this year too. Let’s keep on supporting Dima and other kids who need it!

Sincerely,
Olga.

Dear friend,

Thanks to your support we have already received almost $6000 for the first 3 months our project is a part of GlobalGiving. The money we raised are used to pay for the school education of 3 adopted kids for 1,5 months. One of them is Luisa, a first grader.

Luisa lives with her native grandma. Her mother couldn’t grow the girl up and her grandma has taken Luisa on upbringing when she was a baby. Because of her mother´s health problems during the prenatal period the girl was born with neurological disorders, she was tearful and restless, it was hard for her to get along with other children.

Now Luisa is 7 years old. Thanks to our project she was able to study at a private school with a small number of students in a class and friendly attention of teachers. At first it was very difficult for Luisa to stay quiet during the whole lesson, but now she has made significant progress, the teachers praise her and note her ingenuity and good job at the classes.

“I am very grateful to all of you, because my granddaughter is happy to go to school, she likes to study, she starts making friends, she has become calmer and more confident”, - Luisa’s grandma says. “All the teachers are very kind, - adds Luisa. – There are only 5 students in our class, and each teacher has time to show and explain everything to each of us. I love my school”.

We want to say THANK YOU for taking part in the Luisa´s life and for bringing her family light and hope. Luisa’s grandmother is 70 years old and she has no opportunity to pay for the school herself. Thanks to all of you Luisa has got a chance for education and development, she is trying very hard, let’s keep on supporting Luisa and the kids like her!

Sincerely,
Olga
