A Party with a Purpose!

A Party with a Purpose!

Have you ever thought about turning your next party into a charity event? Many of us agree, that giving actually feels nicer than receiving. When you host a charity party, asking the guests to replace gifts with a donation towards a particular cause, you become both, the recipient and the giver. Today, the Little Cloud Foundation has received $690.00 that was raised at a Baby Shower towards the treatment of Lada Paidem. What a beautiful way to celebrate the approaching birth of a child by giving hope to a little girl in...

Letter of Gratitude

Letter of Gratitude

There were many occasions, when the Little Cloud Foundation has prepared Thank You letters for our volunteers. Yet, what a pleasant surprise it was to receive a letter of gratitude from the Regional Specialist Boarding School №4 in Khabarovsk, Russia, after funding 15 children to attend a Spring camp. The children living in this facility need a lot of support. Many of them are orphans, others have significant disability. With your help, these children had a wonderful and fruitful time at the Kurs-West camp, where they took part in the enriching and highly inspiring program teaching them about their native land, its history, its culture and the remarkable people who lived locally. Here is a link to the video, with the children saying thank you for this experience and sharing their impressions of the camp https://youtu.be/86_HSBNKXWA. In turn, we would like to pass this gratitude to all those, who made this experience possible! Please check out the Project page to see the great photos taken during the...
