Family Time



This is the Family Day weekend for many Canadians where we'll spend quality time with our families.  Even though it's only February I'm anxiously waiting for summer when I'll be going again to Ukraine to spend some quality time with those who have no families.  Once again this year I'll be helping out the Loads of Love team with camps that are sponsored by generous Canadians.

As well as helping out at the camps I would like to sponsor some projects of my own such as an outing or a special treat for those who have so little.  Being a volunteer I don't receive a salary for my work and blessings like a picnic or some treats can add up quickly on a tight budget.

Would you please consider helping me to be a blessing.  To help out you can click the "donate now" button on the right side of this page to give an on line gift.  You can also click the "ways to donate" tab at the top of the page for other giving options.  Every dollar helps and would be appreciated by so many.  Thank you so much.

я люблю вас!!
 
Bananas are a huge treat in an institution with a small budget as well as providing some nutrition.

Getting out of an institution for a couple of hours provides some dignity as well as some fun.

It's amazing how just a few balls can make a difference.

Kids aging out of an orphanage often need extra basic items like a pillow and a blanket.

As Sergey (on the right) could tell you, a day at the beach makes a huge difference to kids in an orphanage.
