WHAT WE DO

Our Charity was formed in 1999 to raise funds to help alleviate children’s suffering in this afflicted region, in a number of ways.

Through a child sponsorship scheme - this has been operating since 2000 and though an increasing number of children have been found sponsors here in Britain through CCIN, there are many others needing support. A monthly donation of just £12.50 funds meals 5 days a week at school or covers the cost for a younger child to attend KinderGarden inc all meals.

Building and improvement projects - our first project was to build a new toilet facility at a main village school who’s basic provision consisted of a hole in the ground in an outside shed for 300 pupils and teachers. Over the years other projects include complete renovation of schools, laundry’s at a hospital and orphanage, kitchens in many schools and much more.

Humanitarian aid shipments - we send two shipments a year containing a broad spectrum of essential aid for schools, hospitals, special needs schools and orphanages. Individual parcels to sponsored children can also be transported this way.

Respite holidays - we bring groups of children to the UK for respite stays, it is believed 4 weeks in the UK boosts a child’s immune system for up to two years. Children unable to gain medical clearance to travel, mainly due to ’Chernobyl Heart’ are funded by us to go to camps within Belarus.
