Saturday, July 21 – Arrive in Kyiv, pass through customs and go to housing at Spa

Monday, July 23rd

– Work with the children at the “Baby House”
orphanage in Vorzel. Here we will visit with younger children, from age 1 to 5. Some of
them have special needs, but many do not, other than being orphans. We will deliver
wheelchairs and other therapy equipment and demonstrate their use. We will also
perform dental cleaning, fluoride and sealant treatments for the children, and get to play
with them and enjoy their love. We also plan on building a playground and doing some
other work at this orphanage, and will stay here for about 3 days, with one day (probably
Monday, July 23rd
) set aside for a “day trip” to visit a Level Four orphanage. (See below.)
Monday, July 23rd
– This is probably the day we will travel to Znamenka to visit the
Level Four orphanage there. It is about 4 hours by train, and we will be back in Vorzel
later the same night. Here we will also deliver wheelchairs and other therapy equipment
and demonstrate their use. We will again perform dental cleaning, fluoride and sealant
treatments for the children, and get to observe and play with some of the children
Thursday, July 26th

morning, meet up with Oksana and other staff from Friends of Ukraine, then travel with
them to the orphanage where we can work with the children and deliver and demonstrate
the use of some of the therapy equipment, returning to Vorzel that same evening. We
will have one more day Friday to work with the orphans at Vorzel.

Snyatyn, a village in Southwestern Ukraine. It will be an all day van or train ride on
Saturday. We will visit with orphans with special needs, bring wheelchairs and other

dental cleanings, fluoride and sealant treatments on them. Then we will leave on
Tuesday and head back towards Kyiv by way of Ternopil.
