Project is “Sweet Dreams”.

Our club has a close relationship with a corrective school-orphanage in Rebrikha (village about 100 km far from Barnaul). There are 120 children at the age from 6 to 17 years old. In some years we have already held several projects with this orphanage. In general all the projects held concerning the equipment of the specialized classes: sewing class, housekeeping, playing room.

There was the international sports competition where our guests from Australia, USA, India, Barnaul Rotarians and orphans participated in. Our club always celebrates New Year and others holidays with them, making repairs; working outside; cleaning the areas in and around the ophanage. Cooperation in such activities is useful for children to obtain important skills of life experience and building the relationships. We can do plenty of the projects in such rural areas because of the modest life conditions there. Well, this autumn, during our visit to the orphanage with family members and rotaractors, we realized our next project! We just asked the children what they want to have. And the answer was surprising to us. Orphans told us that they needed soft beds. It appeared that children sleep on the mattresses which were bought many years ago and now look really scary and smell badly. Pillows consists of cotton-wool scraps, blankets are thin and not warm. And all people spend half of life sleeping! It’s so important on what to sleep!!! So that was the idea of the project “Sweet Dreams”.We will be glad if you would join us this worthy project!
