Charitable Foundation "Our Care to the Generation of the Future" pays special attention to Chechen orphan children
The Interregional Non-Profit Charitable Foundation To Protect Childhood "Our Care to the Generation of the Future" was registered on April 23, 2001. Its members and voluntary helpers have arranged more than 50 acts of charity since that time. The organization's activity reaches out to all corners of southern Russia.
The Foundation takes care of Chechen children: raises money for rehabilitation programs and supplies young Chechens with school books and fiction novels.
It deals with all kinds of children's problems but pays special attention to orphan children. On agreement with the Office of President Putin's Plenipotentiary in the South Federal District and the Chechen Government, the lion's share of humanitarian aid is directed to boarding schools and orphanages.
Young victims of the war action receive medical assistance and psychological advice. Many thousands of small Chechens spent their summer vacations in the resort cities of Tuapse, Anapa and Sochi, which lie on the coast of the Black Sea, in the Republic of Kabardino-Balkaria, and in the Caucasian Mineralnye Vody resort area.
By the Foundation's invitation, children take annual trips to Moscow. A group of gifted Chechen children took part in the festival of Russian literature in the city of Krasnodar.
There is no end to the list of what this Foundation has done for the younger generation. The organization's sensitive and kind-hearted staff workers see what they are doing as their regular way of life.
The chairperson of the Foundation's board of trustees, Tamara Kazantseva, was decorated with the Order of Catherine the Great and the Foundation director, Natalya Korchaghina, got the Roentgen Silver Medal in early September 2003.
