The building, which looks more like a barn, is an old clay house in Novy Mylyatyn in the Busk district. Here lives a single mother with two small children. The house was given to the woman by the village council when she left the orphanage. But now the woman needs the help of caring people to complete the repairs and arrange the conditions in the house. After all, social workers threatened to take her children away.
The project "Social Chamber" of the Anna-Maria Charitable Foundation calls on all concerned to help with the repair of the emergency house where a mother with two children lives.
Lilya is an orphan, mother of two, who lives without a husband in an actually ruined house.
“History is tested and true! He works about the girl Lilya, a caring mother, a good housewife who lives in a village in the Lviv region, but there is a catastrophic lack of money. But the main problem is the old house, which is collapsing… last year one part of the house burned down due to a faulty wiring and, as a result, one wall collapsed, now the other is collapsing… We have little time, because it will soon rain and cold !!!
In the first days of training we were visited by "friends" (so-called people with mental disabilities) and assistants from the NGO "Larsh-Kovcheg" to get acquainted and tell us about their activities. Therefore, all students were looking forward to the beginning of practice in this organization.
We divided into groups and every Tuesday visited the Lyarsh-Kovcheg workshops in different parts of Lviv. There we had the opportunity to communicate and create with "friends". In this organization, "friends" must not only develop and communicate with each other, but also socialize. They serve in churches, go to shops and fairs together to sell their wares.

On St. Valentine's Day in many countries also celebrates the International Book Donation Day. The main purpose of this holiday is to inspire people to give children as many books as possible.
On this day, it is customary to give books to each other and family members, leave books in crowded places, give discounts in bookstores, organize volunteer book collection campaigns, donate printed works to libraries and literacy charities.
In Lviv, there is a center for helping low-income people in the premises of the Central Department Store. Those who care are asked to bring clothes, food and hygiene products
In the house of almost every Lviv resident, there are probably things that have gone out of fashion, become cramped or, conversely, too wide or simply never worn. It is a pity to throw them away, as they say, and there is no place to keep them. Many people offer these clothes to friends, exhibit them on social networks, and bring them to commission shops in the hope of getting at least a few hryvnias for a sweater or shoes. But giving away clothes for free and also to those who really need them is probably one of the easiest and most pleasant ways to help.
In Lviv, deputies supported the idea of creating a social center "Social Chamber" on the basis of the center of the charitable foundation "Christian Center for Aid of Anna Maria", which in December 2016 was organized by a young couple in memory of his daughter
"The center collects things, provides assistance to vulnerable groups. Works on a volunteer basis and exists through charitable contributions. However, he needs more space for his activities, funds for its repair, "explains Iryna Orshak, a deputy of the People's Control faction in the Lviv City Council, who together with colleagues from other factions prepared a joint deputy appeal to the mayor.
As part of the Social Pantry public project, volunteers want to open a new large social center in Lviv, where those in need will be able to receive help, and the more affluent will leave things they do not need.
And we are learning to help properly!
Volunteers of Anna-Maria Foundation underwent a 2-day volunteer school.
NGO coaches Near came from Kyiv, shared experiences, tips, hints!
New knowledge enriches!
Thank you Natalia Wowk for the invitation!
In Lviv, in the premises of the Central Shopping Center on the street The warehouse of the charity organization "Anna-Maria Christian Help Center" is located at 106 Knyagini Olga Street. All needy people can get help here: clothes, shoes and other things.
The organization helps families with many children, low-income families, orphanages, regional homes for old women and more! Anyone who finds himself in a difficult situation can come to the warehouse and get help.
Let's congratulate the ward of our Anna-Maria Charitable Foundation Maria Rakus and her 9 daughters with such a wonderful event!
Dobrodiy gave this large family a big house, because they were all huddled in one room!
A year ago, no one knew much about this family. They turned to our fund to help them with clothes. But we immediately realized that the needs of this family are much greater. So they thought about how to help them, because the fund's capabilities were limited. But God knows how to deal with such issues 
?
We met then with a good volunteer Natalia Wowk, who was very interested in the history of the family, visited, wrote a story about them and coordinated further assistance for them. And so life changed a little. Other organizations learned about the family, other volunteers, and the media. The family was not afraid to tell their story about their needs. And this information reached the right MAN. God does the impossible! And makes them with people's hands! Although we are not directly related to the great gift - home and we are happy to be a little involved in such a good change!
Don't be afraid to talk about your needs! And remember that great miracles come from small steps! Even your little help can change people's lives!
Back on September 22, 2017, in a post about this family, I wrote “so far the biggest problem in housing. But with the help of other organizations and good people - I believe that the family will get help in this matter "- and how not to believe that God hears our requests ???
