Belarusian Prime Minister Aleksandr Turchin has visited the Ivenets Children’s Home Kindness of Hearts ahead of New Year as part of the Our Children nationwide charity campaign.
“I have come to wish you all the best for the upcoming New Year. This institution exemplifies the state’s commitment to caring for every child. I remember my first visit here, and what struck me most was the children’s remarkable optimism. Their positive energy is truly inspiring. We have accomplished much together. With this wonderful winter weather, it feels like a real fairy tale. I sincerely congratulate you and wish you happiness, wellbeing for your families, and that all your dreams come true,” Aleksandr Turchin said.
As part of the visit, the children received gifts, including computers and sweets.
The Ivenets Children’s Home Kindness of Hearts has been operating since 1962. Its new rehabilitation department, opened on 1 October 2024, has already provided comprehensive psychological, pedagogical, and social adaptation services to 286 children with disabilities and 118 parents. The home currently has 38 resident children with disabilities, including nine wheelchair users, with an average age of 15.
The facility is fitted with modern medical equipment and provides a full spectrum of medical care, including prevention, in-depth examination, consultation, treatment, and health improvement.
Plans are underway to establish a rehabilitation and habilitation center for children with nervous system and musculoskeletal disorders from Minsk Oblast on the institution’s premises. The center is scheduled to open on 1 June 2026.
