Ukrainian Orphanage trip 2009 by Sarah Kirby

A photo montage of my trip to Cherkassy, Ukraine, April 2009. Along with a friend, I volunteered in orphanages in the city. You don't make a trip like that without it having a big impact on you. I hope to make trips to Ukraine a regular part of my life. Please leave comments & feel free to get in touch with your own stories of Ukraine or if you want information on the charity I went with - Ukrainian Humanitarian Assistance: http://hope.ck.ua/

This has just brought home to me how privaleged we are in this country. My children take so much for granted and still feel as though they are hard done by! My daughters first coach is Ukranian and he used to ask at the club if we could donate any out grown leotards for the girls there as they have so little money. We have been doing this for the past 4 years, and have some more for him take this year. I believe every little helps,

Sarah, awesome video! I would really like to take a few of my children back to Urkraine to help out at an orphanage. How did you get involved?
