Bathroom renovation in Nikolaiev Baby House, funding needed!
Updated news as of July 15th, 2008 can be read here.
Nikolaiev Baby House (NBH) consists of 12 groups of children from 0 to 4 years of age. Last year, thanks to a generous sponsor, NBH was able to replace all old windows in the children’s bathrooms of each group.
In 2008 Director Olga Ivanovna from NBH would like to repair the children’s bathrooms, replace all water pipes and all sewage pipes as well. This project costs a total of 78,000 US$ for all 12 bathrooms, or approximately 6,500 US$ for each bathroom.
As soon as we have sufficient funds available for the first bathroom we will start and then as we receive more funds continue with a bathroom at the time. We are asking for your kind help to start this project now.
Donations can be made here.
Please consult our list of ongoing projects in Ukraine.
Thank you very much for your kind support!
