Our winter holidays
New Year holidays came to the end. For each child it is a magic period. Annually experts of our Centre schedule a special mass-cultural programme for children`s leisure time. This year we attended different events and places: theatres, concerts, operetta... In general, we had active rest: we ice-skated, played snowballs, made a tour of our favourite city. Our kids are grateful to sponsors and partners for support and for interesting organization of leisure. New year holidays had produced a wonderful impression on children. Today inspired and full of enthusiasm we are ready to go back to our studies.

Our Sincerest Gratitude to the All-Ukrainian Charity Child Well-Being Fund
Sadly, the continuing turmoil in Eastern Ukraine has affected not only the adults but also the children. The safety and protection of the latter remains a pressing problem. In partnership with the NGO Save Ukraine, we have managed to inform the public about the possibility to evacuate children from the combat zone and temporarily place them at the "Our Kids" Centre. Following requests from the parents, 17 kids were admitted to the Centre on 12 December, 2014. Currently, the kids are staying at the Centre in family groups. The Centre provides everything needed for safe and comfortable living and development. Thanks to the project implemented by the All-Ukrainian Charity Child Well-Being Fund, we have been able to generate enough charity donations to buy underwear and everyday clothing for the children. We express our sincerest gratitude to the Fund for providing their assistance and support to our children and hope for further co-operation in the future.

Our 2014 year
Since the political changeover and as a result of the continuing hostilities in the east of the country, Ukraine has been going through a difficult time, and there is no end to this turmoil in sight. For the Centre “Our Kids”, too, 2014 has been a challenging and exciting year. Whereas many children and families in the country have been suffering from shortages of electricity and warm water, we are able to cover our needs with our modern geothermal heating system. Thanks to your support we have, with the exception of minor constraints, been able to continue providing our children with the appropriate care. Since November we have considerably extended our capacity and taken children from the war torn region into our social families. Our Centre is now almost operating at full capacity. We are pleased to enable so many children to spend Christmas in a warm and friendly family atmosphere.
