OREANDA-NEWS. Ends another run of "Train of Hope" - charity initiative within the social project "Child Question" created by Radio Russia. Aeroflot co-organized this charity program for the eighth time. Its purpose is to help children left without parental care to find a new family.

This time the charity program came to Buryatia. Families ready for adoption visited several orphanages of the Republic - Aistenok, Malyshok, and Kamensky. Future adoptive parents met with children and participated in festivals organized by guest artists. The campaign included training seminars for orphanages' staff. In addition to this over 150 portraits were made to be featured in the regional data bank on children without parental care.

Thirteen children found their families through "Train of Hope - Buryatia" program.
