Several years ago, Children’s HopeChest had the honor to sponsor Natasha to attend university in Moscow.  Natasha came from Kostroma, and one of the roughest orphanages around. With those odds, she should not have made it through tech school…let alone university.

Through the help of specific individuals at HopeChest–both in Russia and here in the U.S.–Natasha was given the opportunity to attend university in Moscow, learn English, and graduate.

Today, Natasha is a mentor for younger orphans walking the road she was on just a few years ago.
