Day #7 - "The $20 Challenge" - Building a Rescue Shelter

Hundreds of children in the Ivankiv region of Ukraine suffer through lives of despair each day. For many, their lives are marked by abuse, abandonment and poverty. There is little that Social Services can do and with the recent closure of the government orphanage, there are no housing solutions other than leaving these children to continue living in this horrendous situations. The board of Jeremiah's Hope recently approved the use of the new cabin on the camp property to be used, year round, as a Rescue Shelter for up to 12 children at a time.



The Rescue Shelter will allow us to serve these children in an emergency, and often critical situation. However, we need your help to furnish the facility and make it "home."
