A Cottage of Dreams on the Zaporizhian Steppes

In the internat (orphanage) for disabled children at Kalinovka nine boys share a dream: to live in a cozy home with a warm family atmosphere. Each of us can become a magician and help them realize this dream.

Children of Zaporozhye who had survived cancer went up the mound on the Khortitsa Island and released balloons into the sky as the sign of the victory over the disease.

8 children from Zaporozhye who had overcome cancer committed a symbolic ascent on the saint Khortitsa land on February 15, 2011, the Cancer Sick Kids’ Day.

Unusual but essential!

The newborns staying in the Intensive Care Unit of the Zaporizhia Children’s Hospital #5 received an unusual New Year’s present. Our regular donor presented the little patients an important device –a phototherapy lamp for the treatment of jaundice.

А meeting of deti.zp.ua volunteers took place on the 30th January, 2011

Together we discussed directions in our work having the highest priorities and distributed the responsibilities among ourselves.

To do charity is to give a friend, absolutely unknown person or any creature with whom you live on the same planet, help, joy, care or any other happiness.

Employment with a charity was appealing to me as here you have a chance to help others not only by word, but also by deed
