Orphanage, giving life
Not so for a long time in edition “Fontanka” the letter with the request has come to help a social orphanage “Life”. Has appeared, that the establishment at any moment can appear in the street – square meters in a prestigious place want to give back under habitation. Why so occurs and than it is possible to help, our correspondent understood.
Social shelter “Life” to find easily. Five minutes from “Novocherkassk” and it – hostel, where on the fourth floor at any time of day and the night are ready to accept those for whom is difficult. Behind an iron door – long corridor, as in usual petersburg communal flat, and about ten rooms. We are met by curious sights several boys – someone from them here recently, someone is sick – therefore and not at school. The director of a shelter Elena Kukushkina acquaints with the economy.
In an educational class with out of date by tables ten years’ Sashka comprehends beginnings of mathematics. Through this procedure pass all getting in a shelter: it is necessary, that the child “was tightened” to the certain level, then he goes to school.
- Sasha already much knows, – the teacher Zinaida Nikolayevna tells which has devoted long years to service to such children. – And you see many come and can not tell at all, in what country live. Speak – in Leningrad …
We go further: some bedrooms of the girls and boys, drawing room, restaurant, kitchen, shower-baths with boiler (water hot in a hostel is not present), it a laundry, toilet – here reminds all a usual apartment, only area is larger – more than 400 square meters, and it is a lot of the tenants – now in a shelter constantly there are 16 children, from 5 till 19 years. They get here ” blazed trails “: one are resulted with the policemen from streets, stations, and from houses too, others the bodies of trusteeship and guardianship direct, third bring from hospitals. Practically at all ” in anamnesis ” same: ” my mum accepted drugs, and grandmother drank hard “, ” the Mum drank hard, and the daddy beat me ” etc. And practically everyone want same – to return to the family, but not in such, what she is now, and in changed. Besides care of children, it – too task of a shelter, someone from the adult help to decide on treatment, someone – to find work, and someone by money and things, if it is known, that they will go not on a bottle or doze. Here act for preservation of family and for returning in her of the child.
For 12 years, which “Life” exists, 560 children here have visited. About 200 of them then could return home or have found the trustees or trustees, still were as much sent in schools – boarding schools or children’s houses. When the child gets in a shelter, first of all here find out the reasons, why it has taken place, and search for ways of change of a situation. You see of the round orphans now units, at others are the relatives – close or distant. And, many from them – quite safe people, only about children they to care do not want …
In St. Petersburg a orphanage “Life” know and appreciate, in 2005 its work even was marked is familiar ” For mercy “. Unfortunately, this recognition does not help social establishment in struggle for life. This orphanage was formed in 1997 by the Petersburg businessman. However then his business (as well as at many others in that time) decayed, and from good undertaking it was necessary to refuse. But “Life” has not run low … an Institution has survived not thanking, and contrary to, but all the same has survived and works, but … under threat of. In a departmental hostel now passes process of a privatization of rooms. In 2003 the social establishment already has given back about 500 square meters, now came the turn excites others … And nobody what release them children owe which and so already once have lost the house. The management of a orphanage upholsters thresholds of every possible instances with the request to find an acceptable place for the further work, but while it is vain. The officials sympathize, petition the friend before the friend, but is ineffectual. Similar, to break a situation the intervention of government of city will help only.
Living ” on suitcases “, in a orphanage even repair do not conceive, though the premise require it. A building – basic problem, for the sake of which decision here even are ready to change the legal status, having kept the basic purposes and tasks of rendered social services.
- Let it will be reception family, the social apartment or family-educational of group, – explains Elena Vasilyevna, – but let it there will be premises, adapted under these purpose, where the conditions are as much as possible approached to home, as children’s homes and boarding schools is already past. The policy of the state is directed now on, that children from one family got in another.
It is clear that to decide this problem it is possible only at a urban level. Than the usual petersburgers can help a orphanage?Here, for example, would be glad to the help of the experts, which on volunteer to a basis could work with children. Here with gratitude would accept the help of families, which could take with themselves children at excursion, for city drive on any employment (you see even visiting of pool requires now serious money expenses). In general to compensate that deficiency of dialogue, from which the pupils suffer. The small and average business could help by products, subjects of the first necessity, clothes, footwear, writing goods, good kind films. The small private enterprises help, than can – water, meat, fruit. For business it is not too burdensome, and for a shelter it is very important. You see it l
ives due to such help and not different such, as we with you.
