Ostrovskoye Orphanage

The region of Kostroma is located about six to eight hours Northeast of Moscow on the Volga River. Ostrovskoye Orphanage is located in the small village of the same name. It is located about 45 minutes southeast of the city of Kostroma.

The orphanage is a converted house that can hold up to 30 children in residence, and is warm and homey. The director is determined to meet the emotional needs of the children. As a result, the children are growing up open, loving, caring, and very friendly.

With the partnership of Ed Killins Connect Community, the children at Ostrovskoye Orphanage have the opportunity to grow physically, spiritually, and emotionally while the Ed Killins Connect Community also experiences positive transformation!

Empower a Child at Ostrovskoye

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 Ostrovskoye 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.
