Children's Home I in Nowopilj

Novopily - a village with about 800 inhabitants is located in Chernyakhovsky district, Zhitomir region, about 150 km west from the capital Kiev. Every time you hear or read stories from the lives of such children who are on the street or in an orphanage, it touches you deeply in your soul.

All these stories are incredible and heartbreaking. Thanks be to God that some couples dedicate themselves to serving as foster parents and giving many children a hopeful and secure life. Despite the quarantine measures associated with COVID-19, married couples have had the opportunity to complete training courses to become foster parents.

Dozens of orphans found loving families in one of our homes this year. When orphans come into the family, the children blossom before their very eyes. Having the special gift of caring foster parents, the children are put on their feet with much wisdom and patience so that they become full citizens of the society.

On 14.07.2020 the key to the new children's home, where up to 12 orphans will grow up in a wonderful family, was handed over to the foster couple.
