JANUARY 2025


Dear friends!
The holidays filled with children’s belief in miracles are now behind us. I wish for all of us to retain a sparkle of Christmas joy and hope in our hearts throughout the year! We look back at the past year with gratitude and remember everyone who helped us to help others!

Throughout the year, our volunteers in various cities and even countries, as well as you, our dear friends and supporters, stood by those in need. Altogether, we provided assistance to 79 families. Read more

Until the age of 5, Misha lived in an orphanage. He has a congenital musculoskeletal condition and, before being adopted, he couldn’t walk or move his arms. Over his 13 years, Misha has undergone many surgeries to be able to live a full life. Unfortunately, he has recently experienced a complication in his foot, that was operated in Germany several years ago. He has now been unable to walk for almost a year.
To determine the cause of the complication, Misha was brought to a German clinic for an examination. A medical board has decided that he would need another surgery. But at the moment, Misha and his mother just need to return home. They need help to purchase the tickets – €300

Happy New Year and Blessed Christmas!


Congratulations, dear friends! May the coming year bring happiness, peace and love between people! And health to you all!
