BASIC NEEDS
Rallying the community to provide basic needs.
Thanks to our US-based volunteers, we are able to send hundreds of pounds of clothing, shoes, and food items to Siberia in the form of packages. Purchased at wholesale prices and from thrift stores, these gently worn clothes are carefully picked for community members in need. Children are not strangers to hand-me-downs, and our packages provide things which would otherwise significantly affect the family budget. In addition, during winter months, our organization provides subsidies for coal and other utilities.

MAKE A TANGIBLE DIFFERENCE
Your donations make a real time impact.
The average monthly salary in the southern Krasnoyarsk region is about $300 a month. As you move further away from the larger towns, this number decreases significantly, while also increasing transportation and other costs of living.
Your donations allow us to support women and their families in meeting basic food, housing, and other security needs.
“Half of our pension is spent on the house, the other half on things we can't grow. If we didn't grow our food, we would have nothing. It was a choice between medicine and food. Others have it worse..”
