Dear friends!
I congratulate everyone on the past holidays. I wish all of us to keep in our hearts a piece of Christmas joy and hope throughout the year! May doing good become our contribution to this world that is now experiencing a sharp shortage of love and mercy.

We gratefully remember everyone who helped us to help during the past year. Throughout the year our volunteers and friends in different cities and countries supported those who were in need.
This year we received 28 new requests. In 20 cases help was needed for children, in 8 – for adults. Four requests came from refugee families. Out of those who applied, 21 families have already received all necessary assistance, the rest continue to be in progress.

THE CHAMPAIGN IS COMPLETED!
Dear friends,
the wonderful pre-Christmas season is approaching — and we invite you to create a miracle with your own hands! Our little beneficiaries are waiting for gifts. Below you will find their wishes to Santa Claus — the list is updated as requests come in. Anyone can become such a Santa Claus or a Christmas Angel.

You can:

– transfer the required amount to the Diakonia account (bank transfer or PayPal). Please do not forget to indicate “Podarok” and the child’s name in the payment reference.

– buy a gift yourself. You can send the gift by mail or hand it over to the child in the hospital: through our volunteers or personally. In this case, please write to us at yuli.nazarov@orthodiakonia.de , or WhatsApp +4917685633755 .

– donate any amount convenient for you to Diakonia to support this campaign. Please do not forget to indicate “Podarok” in the payment reference.

Dear friends,
I wish all of you a joyful holiday season! May the coming year make us stronger, more compassionate, and kinder — to one another and to ourselves. May every child be safe, healthy, and happy. Christmas time is a time of miracles — and many of these miracles we create with our own hands.
Last month, with your help, we supported:
Mark Vasiltsov, 5 years old, Belarus, eye cancer, and Sasha Provotorov, 13 years old, Russia, brain cancer, by helping to cover diagnostics and treatment costs.

The first Christmas charity fairs of Dobroye Delo in Cologne and Stuttgart were a great success! Thanks to all volunteers, organizers, and helpers! Thanks to everyone who came, supported us, and brought joy to themselves and their loved ones. All collected funds will go directly toward the treatment of our beneficiaries.

This month, the following children are waiting for our help: Read more
