Feed the soul trip for Tsurupinsk


From December 26 - 28, fifteen disabled orphans from the Tsurupinsk Children's Home in Kherson, Ukraine were treated to a special Holiday trip to the Capitol city of Kiev. An Orphan Smiles helped provide funding to allow the children to enjoy many special activities for the first time in their lives. They went to a Sea World type show, a movie theater, and an arcade. They also enjoyed sightseeing in a special bus, and meals out at McDonald's and Pizza!
