Serving the Russian Orthodox
Our team left home at 6:00 AM, got home at 11:00 PM – Fond dawn patrol, delivering presents for 150 kids in Sakhanka and Krasnoarmeyskoe on the front lines down south, then visiting the Village of Roses, completely destroyed by Grad attack September 2019. Thanks to everyone who helps us.
We are brought presents to more than 120 kids at the Central Library in December. This is our third mission for kids with vision and hearing problems. Thanks for all our donors and volunteers
We were back in Petrovsky District for a tournament at the Ilia Muromets Judo Club. Fund has been sponsoring this club for 3 years now, and it’s gotten bigger and better every year. Thanks for all our donors and volunteers.
Today’s Human Aid Mission – Trudovskie Mine #7 neighborhood.
Trudovskie is still, to this day, one of the most heavily shelled areas of Donetsk. Mortars were landing within 500 meters of us while we were there this afternoon. Civilian areas…
We brought presents for 50 kids who were waiting for us at the neighborhood store, and there were 6 special needs kids who couldn’t make it, so we visited them at home. The social safety net system is not perfect, and some people just fall through the cracks. That’s where WE come in, and that’s where YOU come in. A little bit of Christmas cheer goes a long way in these parts, it means so much to these good people just to know that someone cares, that they are not forgotten. THANKS to all who contributed to this mission and were a part of it. We are what we do…
Volnovakhsky district, village of Lyubovka, 5 km from the front line. There were 30 children at the festival, though 50 kids live in the village. The children danced, sang songs, recited New Year poems. The event took place in the school. In 2015 it suffered from shelling of the Ukrainian troops. The school principal, the teachers, some deputies and their assistants, special forces veterans were present. We brought some books to the library, organized ‘sweet table’ for those who came, and the rest got sweets later. Everyone was satisfied and saw us off with a request to remember them.
The parents with little kids came just for a little while. A family with a 7 y. o. boy came and immediately left. We asked why, and the teacher answered: “In 2015 the family got under heavy fire and now the boy is even afraid of music”.
Thanks a lot to all donors and volunteers.
Donbass Human Aid did a human aid mission to Zaitesvo, one of the most heavily bombed areas of Donbass, even to this day. We brought Christmas presents, clothes and candy for 80 kids and their families. We’ll be going back again! THANKS to all who contributed to this mission! What comes around, goes around, doesn’t it?! Merry Christmas, and God bless us, every one!
On St. Nicholas Day, we visited the children of the city of Snezhnoye. We brought them sweets, fruits and conducted a master class on making Christmas toys and, of course, Christmas trees. Look what we got. The fund has purchased all the necessary materials for crafts. Thanks a lot to all donors and volunteers. Merry Christmas!
We are bringing presents to 120 kids at the Central Library this month. Here’s a video of our first of four Library Missions, on Dec. 16th. We will do 3 more, 23rd, 24th and 25th, with about 30 kids each. Every kid in this video lost a parent in this war. Thanks to everyone for your friendship and support. More missions, more kids helped, more photos and videos coming soon. Merry Christmas!
We went to visit some kids who live near the Front on the outskirts of Donetsk. Donbass Human Aid brought cake, tea and cookies, and construction material. Volunteers and musicians came with us and a great time was had by all! THANKS TO ALL WHO CONTRIBUTED!
A large family Vlasenko lives in Torez. Elena herself chose the right sizes of winter shoes for her six children in the store. Our fund paid for the purchase. Thanks to everyone who helps the children of Donbass.
