| In June 2023, Save The Orphans founder Sylvia Mader returned to Moldova for the first time since the COVID outbreak and met with Serghei Mihailov, Executive Director of Beginning of Life (BOL), a Moldova-based Christian organization focusing on the problems facing adolescents deprived of parental care and orphans. BOL shields these children from human sex-trafficking while addressing their physical and emotional needs through therapy. Save the Orphans sponsored Computer and Robotics weekly training courses for orphans and poor children in Chisinau taught by Ion Gardarenco. STO partner Pastor Vasile of Isus Salvatorul in Soldanesti with Sylvia oversaw and participated in STO-funded food distributions for destitute families in three villages. Sylvia also visited STO’s sponsored foster family Elena Babei’s family of 13 children (four of whom she adopted) in Cricova. |
