Last month an electrical suction machine and a recirculator were procured for the Kirovsky orphanage for the department for bedridden children, where Kalinovka residents were transferred this summer.
The Kalinovka orphanage purchased petrol for UAH 1.300 (100 US dollars) to transport children to hospitals. Besides, with the support of our American donator we have a doctor working in Kalinovka for the fourth month. Our regular sponsor, Maya’s Hope, also covers the work of rehabilitators in Kalinovka and in the orphanage based in Velikiy Lug.
We also purchased petrol for 16 female residents of Kirovsky orphanage to visit circus in September courtesy of administration of the Zaporozhzhye circus.
We also covered the costs to repair two water heaters in Kalinovka. Unfortunately, due to the poor quality of the water they often break down.
The Report of Educator’s Work in Kalinovka
An educator for adults continues her work in Kalinovka thanks to the support of our donors from the UK, Future Youth Project. With her adult students, Natasha P. does handicrafts, teaches them colors, seasons, draws, works with modeling clay, construction sets, and teaches them writing, with the most “complicated” students playing with musical toys, pyramids and learning to walk. We still need your help to pay for the work of such adult educator at weekends. Thank you in advance!
