February, 2005

Novokuznetsk Children's Home #1 is a very old building, recently converted from a schoolhouse into a children's home.  Besides being in poor repair, the home suffered from a lack of common facilities for the kids to utilize and enjoy, the result of which was that during the long winter months the kids were limited to their dormitory sleeping-rooms for study and for entertaining themselves.  In addition to our Recreation/Computer Room project, thanks to the generosity of donors we were able to remodel another of the common rooms to serve as library, -a place for the kids to study and place where they can constructively utilize their free time.  After reconstruction, the library was furnished, a television and VCR were purchased, and most importantly a substantial stock of brand new books and educational videos was provided to serve the kids for many years to come.

Donor:  Aimee Poche, with additional contributions by Edward DeSear and Denise Hove

Project Cost:  US $3700

$320 - Room reconstruction
$725 - Educational video tapes
$1050 - Furniture, electronics
$1605 - Books
