2008"The Ufa Children's Fund was created in 1999 and now has three people working for the Fund. The Fund is located in Bashkortostan and works among ten to fourteen orphanages and boarding schools each year. The goals of the Fund: to render material, moral, and spiritual help to children and orphans of the orphanages and boarding schools of Bashkortostan, and also to graduates of the orphanages. During the past nine years the Fund has accomplished numerous projects such as remodeling of bathing facilities, orphanage sauna rooms, laundry rooms, bathrooms, the construction of a mini-bakery, fine arts studio, computer classroom, pottery workshop, hair salon workshop, auto repair shop, sensory/tactile room, and a room psychological unloading for children and orphans in children's homes and boarding schools. The Fund has also helped two orphan girls to have complicated and expensive operations. For all these nine years The Fund repeatedly delivered to children's homes and boarding schools medical and hygienic supplies, footwear and clothes, sports equipment, sewing and washing machines, school supplies and miscellaneous goods, video-cameras, tape recorders, cameras, lawn-mowers and other useful equipment.
The Fund enlists volunteers and receives teams of
cross-cultural believers wishing to visit the children's homes.
Meetings and fellowship evenings are held with graduates of the orphanages. The Word of God is provided to everyone by giving them Bibles and Christian literature. Almost all young people who are friends of our Fund, have become believers. We visit children who have to go to the hospital and we advise children on numerous questions; we enable them to have time to use computers. The British charitable organization Child Aid has supported our administrative expenses for several years. At the present moment, it is not possible for Child Aid to continue supporting us. In order to further to continue this, in our opinion, very necessary work, we are compelled to address everyone for their help. If in your hearts there is a desire to support the work of our Fund, to become a partner in service to orphans, we ask you to address our friend Chris Carr at the address: chrcarr@gmail.com Thank you, |
The
Fund spiritually, morally and financially supports students and former
graduates of the children's homes. We advise them on various questions
from household to legal issues. We are praying and laboring over the
question of adaptation of children back into society.
