An amazing testimony of the administration of the orphanage.
Today we had a unique conversation with the representative of the orphanage administration in Vorzel. This person said that the last year was very important for the orphanage and there was certain struggle going on. They said that the government was going to shut down the orphanage because the old facilities were dangerous for children and personnel. But in reality the reason is somewhat different. The land in Vorzel is very expensive. Today the land of the orphanage costs $5-7 mln. There are people in the government who really want to get this land and the bad state of the facilities was just an excuse to shut down the orphanage. It this case 200 people would lose their job and more that 100 orphans would be sent to other remote orphanages where facilities are even worse.

The representative of the orphanage administration informed that in the beginning of 2010 a governmental committee checked the orphanage and they saw all the transformations including new doors, windows, new flooring and the most important the remodeling of the heating system because it was mostly dangerous. So they are losing reasons to shut down the orphanage.

The representative of the orphanage was so grateful and exited about the construction and remodeling in 2008, 2009 and 2010. They believe that because of this remodeling the orphanage has a future.
