Christmas Presents for Orphanages
Does anyone know of a U.S. based charity that takes material donations for Russian orphanages? A while back a local charity took shoe boxes filled with items so that the orphans receive a gift at Christmas, but that local charity is no more. We enjoy doing this with our DD to give her a perspective of where she came from and how it is important to help others.Any one know of a similar program anywhere?

I am their local volunteer media director and we've done boxes for many years. Here's my last year's blog when I went into detail.

there was a missionary type of church in Vladivostok. I will see if I can find the name. The organization had been around for a while.
