PROJECTS & SUCCESS STORIES
Svyato-Voznesenski orphanage
Svyato-Voznesenski orphanage serves as a foster home for 220 orphans and disabled children. The orphanage is located at the Svyato-Voznesenski monastery. The monastery was founded in 1994 by Father Michael Longin (abbot) and four monks in the village of Bunche, Chernovitski region, Ukraine. Soon after, a foster home was established within its walls. Father Michael took under his guardianship some of the most helpless children with severe diagnosis from the orphanages around Ukraine. In 2002, new housing for children was built in the nearby village. Currently, foster home grounds consist of three four-storied cottages: one for boys, one for girls, and one house in particulary designated for HIV-infected children.
Kristina Konstantinova is an eleven-year-old from Irkutsk, Russia. Kristina leaves with her mother and grandmother. While Kristina's grandmother looks after her, her mom has two jobs, working during the day and the night in order to support the family. Kristina was born with cerebral palsy, which affects muscle tone, movement, and motor skills. Due to this disorder, Kristina cannot control her own movements and is unable to walk. She has been confined to a wheelchair since she was born. The procedures associated with cerebral palsy disorder are sponsored by the Russian government, but any associated cost of special adaptive equipment (such as a wheelchair) are not covered by this insurance. Kristina is growing and needed a new wheelchair, which her family could not afford to purchase in the near future. MISHKA sponsored the purchase of her new wheelchair, and the shipment just took place last week! We will keep you updated on Kristina's story.
Vika Ephimova
MISHKA and its volunteers in Vladivostok, Russia helped Vika and her family to get permanent residency in Vladivostok in the late spring of 2010. All of Vika's prosthetic procedures and their associated costs will be sponsored directly by the Russian government from this point forward. MISHKA and its volunteers will keep in touch with Vika and her family to ensure that procedures are performed on time and that Vika is doing well. We will keep you updated on any news we have from Vika!
Elat’ma, a small village in the Kasimov area of Russia’s Ryazan region, is home to several orphanages: a pre-school orphanage that is home to 55 children between the ages of 3 and 9, and a school for children with developmental disabilities which is currently home to 88 children aged 8 to 18. These institutions provide an environment where children are able to learn, acquire a profession and live independently when they grow up.
MISHKA Children Foundation organizes volunteer events in order to provide various educational materials and supplies to the Elat’ma orphanages.
