Beitenu, Ukraine

Last year's Beitenu project, 'Life is in your own hands', supported by WJR, provided a world of creativity to youth as an alternative to street life, dangerous acquaintances and substance abuse.

At the end of last year's project, a stable group of active Jewish youth expressed their willingness to pass on their creative skills to other vulnerable groups - in this case orphans studying in local boarding schools.

This year's project is called "Fun Quest". It is a unique integration project to promote healthy living and creativity to vulnerable youth and orphans in Ukraine. The project will run in Kiev, Bila Tserka and Ladyzhynka.

"Fun Quest" will be delivering a variety of activities/training sessions that will empower the youth to be self-sustainable and to realise their full potential.
