Spitchino Orphanage
Many children in the Kirov region of Russia have experienced loss, abandonment, neglect, abuse, and family degeneration. Many of these children are removed from their homes by the government and placed in orphanages like Spitchino.
At Spitchino Orphanage, the children’s basic needs are cared for such as healthcare, food, and clothing. In addition, the children have access to a quality education, life skills training, discipleship, recreational activities, and mentorship. Through these programs and the support of the nurturing discipleship staff, children are given the opportunity to develop into independent and successful adults so that the vicious cycles of abandonment and substance abuse are broken.
With the partnership of oint Washington UMC , the children at Spitchino Orphanage have the opportunity to grow physically, spiritually, and emotionally while the Point Washington UMC community also experiences positive transformation!

Empower a Child at Spitchino
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.
Start a Fundraiser for Spitchino
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 Spitchino 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.
