cyber-Wear once more supports a children's home in Belarus

On the opening of the short-term care facility at the Mogilev children's home, this time cyber-Wear brought a gleam not to the eyes of the children but to those of the staff. Bright red fleece jackets and polo shirts have been designed for the staff.

In December cyber-Wear, as it does every year, brought joy to the children of the Mogilev children's home in Belarus with lots of different Christmas gifts such as materials for painting, drawing and handicrafts, Christmas decorations, sweets and toys - now it's the turn of the staff at the home. For them bright red fleece jackets and polo shirts have been embroidered with the logo of the palliative care centre. When the clothing arrived in Mogilev it was welcomed with open arms by the delighted staff at the children's home. Their response was that they now have the feeling even more strongly that they form a unit, and the children, too, can identify them faster and more easily.

 

For years now cyber-Wear has been providing regular support to the organisation which provides aid to children affected by Chernobyl. The organisation, which is based in the Rhineland region, not only runs the children’s home in Mogilev but also organises and supports social and medical projects in the affected region of Belarus.

 

More than three decades have passed since the explosion in Ukraine’s Chernobyl nuclear power station on 26 April 1986. About 30% of neighbouring Belarus was contaminated. The area in and around Mogilev was one of the more heavily affected areas. Children are particularly vulnerable. Four years after the catastrophe, an abrupt increase in incidences of thyroid cancer in children was determined. 170 orphans are being brought up at the children's home, most of them with some form of disability. Of these 170 young children 11 suffer from epilepsy, 28 from diseases of the skeletal and muscular system, and 30 from metabolic and eating disorders .
