Children at Risk
Anna was a good, experienced teacher. But when our education project director, Daisy* approached her to offer work teaching children with disabilities in Belovodski children’s home, Anna was not sure she was up to the task. However, Daisy assured Anna that she would not be alone, that she and our team would be with her, giving her support and ideas.
Daisy has an educational background and spends time finding and supplying creative ways to teach children with special needs. And we discovered sponsors willing to contribute to provide school supplies for the children in the education program. Once more we, gave a hand up to people in need.
Our Project Restore seeks to restore hope and provide opportunities and a future for children at risk. We give children and families the tools they need to overcome obstacles and live fruitful and productive lives. Working together with our local partners, we empower, encourage, and help provide opportunities for a better future for these children!
