The Matushki charity society continues to help familiestranslated

November 11, 2026 · 1 min read

Members of the Matushki charity society continue to help families who especially need attention, care and support.

Recently, the wives of clergymen visited the family-type orphanage of the Pisarenko family, where ten orphans are being raised. Parents try to surround their natural and adopted children with the same care, creating for them an atmosphere of love, trust and responsible attitude towards each other.

Another help was provided to a mother who is raising a child with a disability alone. When the woman needed inpatient treatment, and there was no one nearby who could take care of her daughter, the girl was temporarily placed in the palliative care department.

Members of the society helped organize the child’s transportation and hospitalization, stayed in touch with the family and supported them in a difficult situation.

Such work consists of specific tasks: responding to a request in a timely manner, helping to solve a practical issue, supporting a person and staying close when it is especially necessary.
