Sometimes, big change doesn’t require big spending. Bird of Light Ukraine is working with one of the most underfunded orphanages in Chernivtsi to help revitalize the facility and bring a little bit more joy to the lives of these kids.

Our plan is to eventually change how orphanage care is conducted in Ukraine, introducing more foster care and making adoption easier, but that’s going to be a long term project. For now, we’re doing what we can to make the lives of these children a little bit better. Starting with where they live.

We also plan on reconstructing their playground. Click this link for more information on that!

12 UV light air filters were delivered to a local orphanage in Chernivtsi city for children under the age of 6.

These lamps will be used in baby rooms to sterilize rooms for babies to minimize airborne diseases and bacteria. This request came from the director of the facility as they have recently found themselves overwhelmed by orphans that were relocated to western Ukraine, or were orphaned as a result of the war.
