“We are grateful to the people who helped us buy bikes and food, to those who pray for us and dream the same dream. We dream all the orphanages will be closed in Ukraine and that there will be no children without parents,” commented the organizer Gennadiy Mokhnenko, pastor of the Church of Good Changes.

The group will reach Kyiv on June 24 and will give official letters to the president, government and the Parliament of Ukraine. The organizers will hold a final press conference, concert and prayer for children without parents and potential adoptive parents.
