Kameshkovo Orphanage

The orphanage of Kameshkovo is found in one of the poorest towns in Vladimir Region. The orphanage opened in October 1994, and Children’s HopeChest has worked with Kameshkovo since 1996.

Left to grow up in state run institutions, orphaned Russian children and teens suffer from emotional scars that leave them entering society without the basic life skills needed to survive. Through partnership with Children’s HopeChest, orphaned children are taught basic life skills, and more importantly that they are loved and valuable additions to society.

Kameshkovo was the first to open foster homes in the community – giving the children a home environment and supplementing the household income of the parents.

With the partnership of friends of Kameshkovo, the children at Kameshkovo Orphanage have the opportunity to grow physically, spiritually, and emotionally while the New Generation Ministries International community also experiences positive transformation!

Empower a Child at Kameshkovo

Empowering a child is one of the most personal ways that you can make an impact on global poverty. It is more than providing for their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. When you sponsor a child, you build a relationship that shows that child they are valuable, worth loving, and worth investing in.

Your sponsorship is the starting point of a journey that equips vulnerable children, their families, and their communities to create sustainable transformation. When you sponsor a child with HopeChest, you are not just supporting one child — you are helping transform entire communities.

HopeChest’s approach to alleviating poverty is asset-based, because we believe that in every place on earth there are resources, not only for surviving, but for thriving and succeeding. Local leaders tell us what they do have instead of what they don’t have, and we walk with them to see their vision for their community come to fruition through development projects.

A fundraiser for Kameshkovo Orphanage is transformational rather than transactional. It promotes empowerment rather than dependence. Your support for these projects will go a long way as, together, we invest in holistic and sustainable solutions that address the root issues of poverty.
