A few more days then we head back to Canada


Yesterday we delivered coal to a friend of Aigula's .. She lives in the village by herself and has only one leg. She receives a pension of just $23 a month .. while there she shared how she has fallen a few times at night walking out to the out house that is at the back of her property .  I also noticed that she had big glossy photos of Pizza up in her kitchen.


So today we stoped at her home with a portable toilet and a pizza for here 😁

Over at the boys we are finished the renovations and repairs , and even were able to find some nice carpets and paintings to make things more cozy.  We now have rooms set up for 10 with just two boys per room . 



Today we had a training day with all our workers . We discussed the structural changes we have made over the last few months as well as we had our on staff psychologist  give a training on dealing with Trauma and was able to gear it specifically to the kids that we are working with 




Marat had made an easel aboy 5 years ago , but yesterday decided to upgrade it .. There is a real difference in the workmanship then and now.   



We continue to try to meat our target for the Christmas celebrations .. many of the individual items have been covered , but the main items are still needing a lot of help.  The three areas that we have the greatest need are ; 
the Christmas in the orphanages, vitamins and the food hampers . At Just $10 / $15 / and $20 , these are low ticket items that have a huge impact . here is an update where we stand. Right now we have 
 130 of 600 Christmas in the Orphanage @ $10 
 18 bottles of Vitamins @ $15 
 79 of 500 Christmas food hampers @ $20
