Programs
Here are some of our ongoing programs:
Orphanages throughout the entire former Soviet Union lack funding for even basic essentials such as food and clothing. The Grow Bag Program allows our chapter to gather supplies that can be taken to orphanages by traveling families. Our chapter can provide supplies and a dufflebag. Click here for details.
 One of the best supports for families are other families. The first organized support will be an informal telephone network that will help to connect families with similar needs.
The network will be a group of families who have volunteered
to act as contacts. The role of these families will be to know
the names and telephone numbers of other families with similar
needs. The first set of families will represent the various age
groups. The support is not designed to replace professional help
which is sometimes needed.
In the next newsletter, a list of names and numbers will be available.
If you have questions or other ideas, please contact Mary
Ellyn.
FRUA members can participate in regular play groups for the children. Current plans are to meet the 3rd Saturday of every month. Any and all suggestions are welcome. Check the Play Groups page for dates and places.
Life Books are a wonderful way to permanently document your child's life. There are ongoing classes and workshops on saving those precious memories. Click here for details.
