Volunteers' support

Thanks to the funds received we were able to compensate work of our volunteer – Christina Petrova. Here is a small report written by Christina:

‘My first month as a volunteer passed very quickly. Specialists and volunteers of ‘Shag Navstrechu’ had a summer trip with 10 kids.We rented 2 houses near a small lake - it was great! Quiet and very beautiful. During our trip we taught kids to brush teeth (those who can’t do it), to write, even to cook. All our kids gained new useful skills in that trip and had a chance to rest outside the walls of the orphanage. Our weekend was full of great amusements: we had music sessions, went boating, picked berries, and watched cartoons. Some children even learned to make pancakes and meatballs. There is no doubt that every kid in that trip became more independent and sociable. They started to get along not only with volunteers and employees of ‘Shag Navstrechu’ but what is more important with each other.’

Thanks to the funds received ‘Shag Navstrechu’ was able to give 10 children love and support of a caring person. Without a support of our volunteers we wouldn't be able to arrange that trip because every child needs an individual care and support.

Every trip outside the orphanage is a huge event for our kids and we are truly grateful for giving us a chance to make their lives a little bit more eventful. Our volunteers will continue to share their time and attention with orphans and your help will help them to do it!
