Kaliningrad, RUSSIA - The time has come to remember that it isn't just the children in orphanages who are in need of care and attention, but also the elderly. That's why volunteers and alumni from FLEX, UGRAD and IVLP programs went to celebrate the still recent holidays with residents at "Sosnovaya Usadba" (Pine Manor) home for the elderly. On January the 15th, 2012, they held an incredible event for the seniors while showering them with genuine interest and conversation. There are currently 27 persons residing in the home, from ages 58 to 98.

Christmas and New Year’s are a couple of the most festive family holidays in the world. Each year not only children, but even adults eagerly await the scents of fresh Christmas trees and evergreens, the rustle of wood in the fireplace and the crumpling of wrapping paper. Unfortunately, however, not everyone is able to celebrate such festive holidays with their close ones. For this reason, when the opportunity arises to share one’s joy and holiday spirit with children from orphanages, it becomes an indispensable opportunity for an incredible experience. |
