Charity Efforts
In Bujaru, Brazil, we have a crucial project that needs funding. There is currently no children's home in the entire area, leaving many children in desperate situations. Hope Ministries is dedicated to building a safe haven for these vulnerable kids and requires support to complete the final phase of the construction, and VSM is dedicated to provide that support.
The funds will provide essential items such as furniture, windows, kitchen fixtures, tiles, bathrooms, and other necessary supplies. Our staff members of VSM have been to this community and have met the local people and see the dire need, you can see some of the pictures featured here. We will be supporting the final portion of the home, and we still need $35,000 to finish the project.
Thanks to the generosity of our VSM partners and donors, we have successfully undertaken numerous life-changing projects since 2022. We remain committed to these impactful initiatives, and you can explore many of our projects below.
Charity Projects
Stoves for families in Guatemala
Thanks to the generous support of our partners, Vladimir Savchuk Ministries was able to provide new, efficient stoves for six families living in extreme poverty in the Santa LucÃa Milpas Altas region of Guatemala. Previously, these families cooked on open wood stoves, which not only consumed excessive wood but also created hazardous health conditions due to smoke and fire risks. The new stoves significantly enhance their cooking experience, promoting safety and sustainability. With these improvements, families can save valuable resources and enjoy a healthier, more secure home environment.
Amazon River in Brazil
Your donations have been making a profound impact on impoverished river communities in Brazil, including São Lopes, Bujaru, Alegre Vamos, and others along the Amazon River.
VSM provided 60 food baskets, each feeding a family of five for one week with essential staples. In addition to this, a soup kitchen on a medical boat served meals to both local families and the medical mission team working in the area. Through this outreach, VSM has brought vital relief and hope to communities living in extreme poverty, offering crucial support to sustain and uplift those in need.
Orphanage Care in Myanmar
Your donations have been supporting an orphanage in Yangon, Myanmar, and surrounding small villages, offering crucial aid to children and families affected by high inflation and poverty. Over 200 families received rice, oil, and basic necessities, including families who had been unable to afford food due to the economic crisis. The orphanage, which had run out of food, was replenished with essential supplies, and lunch boxes were provided for the children to take to school, ensuring they are nourished and cared for during difficult times.
In addition to food relief, your contributions helped fund a new pressure washer, greatly improving the safety and hygiene of the orphanage. The rainy climate had caused mold and slime buildup in the courtyard, creating unsafe conditions for the children. With the pressure washer, the orphanage can now easily maintain a clean environment where the children can safely play and enjoy soccer in the freshly cleared courtyard. Your generosity continues to make a lasting impact, being the hands and feet of Jesus in this community.
New Home Construction in Romania
The ongoing generous support of partners and donors have made a profound impact on the lives of a family of eight in Codlea, Romania. Before the intervention, the family lived in a home without basic necessities—no running water, no electricity, no indoor bathroom, and an infestation of fleas and bugs.
Through the contributions of VSM partners, essential building materials such as bricks, roof materials, and labor were provided. VSM donors also funded key construction supplies, including concrete, screws, roofing sheets, and more, to help build a safe and secure home for the family.
Relief for Ukrainian Refugee Moms and Children in Poland
Vladimir Savchuk Ministries has been supporting a ministry focused on mothers and children affected by the war in Ukraine. VSM has provided the means to pay for rent of two mission homes in Rzeszów, Poland that host mothers, children and volunteers serving them. Throughout the summer, the ministry also does camps all throughout Ukraine that gives an opportunity for children to learn about the gospel, bringing comfort and spiritual guidance during a difficult time.
VSM-Partnered School in Zambia
Vladimir Savchuk Ministries is partnered with a school in Zambia that provides care and discipleship for broken and neglected teens. This ministry focuses on offering education, spiritual growth, and guidance to help these teens rebuild their lives, providing them with a brighter future.
