Join USNOF in supporting Ukraine in the care, development, and education of children with special needs and those living in orphanages.
This summer USNOF is looking for volunteers to join us in putting on 2 vacation bible schools in Khmelnytsky, Ukraine. The plan is to split each day of our service in half. We will work at two facilities, at least one of which will be an orphanage specifically for individuals with disabilities. This will include stories, crafts, and recreation with the children of each facility.
While volunteers are working with the children, USNOF will also be putting on a conference on special education for Ukrainian parents and professionals in the special education field.
Experience with children with disabilities will be helpful, but is not necessary. We need volunteers that want to support the growth and development of orphans and show them the love the world has to offer them.
