Another great day with young ladies in our  Young Mothers Program here in Kostroma, Russia. We spent the afternoon talking to these courageous young ladies in HopeChest's Young Mothers Program. I presented each mother with a HopeChest Love Goes Around necklace–the same ones you can buy as a Mother's Day gift this year.


About five years ago, we started getting calls from our older orphan girls who were pregnant, scared, and unsure of what to do next. We know that about 40 percent of today’s Russian orphans are the children or grandchildren of orphans.

There’s a clear pattern of “orphans-making-orphans,” and we set out to break that cycle.

Right now, these young women—the girls and their babies you saw in the video— have chosen to keep and raise their children, and are becoming wonderful mothers. It is truly a transformational program.

This Mothers Day, Children’s HopeChest is partnering with AdoptionFathers.com to bring you the Love Goes Around necklace. When you buy this necklace for your mother, wife, sister, or daughter, proceeds will support the women in the video you saw and help victims of sex trafficking in Moldova.

This beautiful, limited edition, hand-made necklace will make an incredible Mother’s Day gift. It was custom-designed with a message so perfectly created, that it speaks to both the mom who will receive it, as well as the women in Moldova and Russia who will receive the gift of support and hope, when you buy it. That message is LOVE GOES AROUND.

The success of the Young Mothers Program depends on the support we provide from the United States. You can buy your Loves Goes Around This proposal briefly describes the program, provides some testimonials, and shows the impact your giving can make.
