Why give to Kitezh

In our society anyone who acquires a level of wealth or power feels the need to put it to good use, to change the world around them for the better. Giving financial support to a project that reflects this desire means that you are not just giving a penny to a starving beggar, but you are participating in an effort to build a stronger base for society. Everyone who comes to Kitezh can find their own place, their own way to take part in this work. It may be to support Kitezh with money, maybe to bring special expertise or information, or simply to come and give love and understanding to the children.
