Many of them are talented artists!

The boys study music and perform for visitors and at music competitions.

UAC helps maintain two greenhouses at Fontanka.  The boys learn horticulture skills while growing produce for the institution. 

The boys at Fontanka celebrate Peace Day each year with the help of UAC Ukraine.  Celebrating peace and goodwill is especially important for these boys who come from troubled families, other orphanages and the streets.

The conditions at Fontanka are deplorable.  Nearly every part of the building needs attention.  

Mattresses at Fontanka are in terrible condition and desperately need to be replaced.

Computers need to be replaced so that the boys can use them for educational purposes.
