Future Projects

FTF has identified, and is accessing, several other situations that need and deserve immediate help. They include another orphanage located 50 kilometers further east that is in desperate need of a new roof, new flooring, and bathroom repairs and improvements. This orphanage is home to 20 children.

FTF is also focusing on a school/orphanage in Lviv that caters to special needs children. This facility now accommodates around 235 children. The original building is a former convent that dates from the 1880’s, so there is an ongoing need for repairs. Most importantly, FTF hopes to reconstruct several outbuildings, which will allow for the addition of approximately 60 more children. A workshop area will be established, which will allow some of these kids to learn a trade and become contributors to society, rather than being perceived as burdens. Of less magnitude, but of importance, are establishing an outdoor play area on the grounds for the children and upgrading furniture (buying chairs and repairing the stage) in the assembly hall.

Unfortunately, the above situations represent just the tip of the iceberg. As the war drags on, more and more children are being relocated to the western part of Ukraine, where it is far safer than in the East. As a result, the overburdened and under financed caregivers and facilities are being overwhelmed. While FTF cannot make a meaningful impact on the overall situation, we can, and will, do everything possible to bring hope and safety to the children that we are able to reach.
