Kostroma CarePoint is located western Russia, about 400 km northeast of Moscow. The center supports orphaned teens who have graduated from orphanages, helping them build life skills, gain job readiness, and develop confidence for self-sufficiency.
With the partnership of LifeStream Church, teens have access to counseling, mentorship, emergency support, a computer lab, sports and recreational activities, art classes, and a movie club. By equipping graduates with essential skills, Kostroma CarePoint helps teens thrive as adults and breaks the cycle of orphanhood.

Donate to the Youth & Family Mentoring and Leadership Programs
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.
Your gift to Kostroma CarePoint is the starting point of a journey that equips vulnerable children, their families, and their communities to create sustainable transformation.
Donate to the Youth & Family Mentoring and Leadership Programs
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 gift to Kostroma CarePoint 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.
