Make a Difference for Kids in Belarus!
Spring of Revival is on a mission to equip 50 children in Greben—a small village in southern Belarus, near the Ukrainian border—with backpacks and school supplies. These kids face incredible hardships, as most families survive on just $200 a month, barely enough for food.
For years, Spring of Revival has been a beacon of hope, ensuring these children have the essentials they need for school. Now, we need your help to continue this life-changing work!
You can make an impact by giving online to “Belarus Missions” or writing in the memo line of your check.
Every gift brings hope. Dziakuj! Thank you!
