Thanks to your participation, we paid for the work of social workers in the supported living apartment on Morskaya Embankment. Every day, specialists help six people with severe disabilities: with hygiene, in everyday life, on walks, on trips, organize leisure and holidays.

The summer was eventful. Five people celebrated their birthdays, each in their own way: Sveta visited the oceanarium, Sasha went on a boat ride and was at a concert. Vitaly celebrated the holiday with his loved ones.

In August, Vitaly went on his first real vacation – he is proud that he was able to work for a whole year in the art residence and earned money for the vacation himself. In September, the rest of the wards will go on vacation. This year, they paid for the vouchers and tickets to the sanatoriums themselves – for them, this is an important and responsible step.

A creative space was equipped in Vitaly's room: an adapted table for drawing and lamps were installed, which he can turn on himself. He bought himself a TV and is happy to change the environment to his taste.

The guys walked a lot, went to the Hermitage, to the "House at Large" festival, to the cinema, and also bought vegetables and fruits and made preparations for the winter.

Thank you for helping our wards live a full life!

About the campaign

A home for Vitaly and other children with disabilities: assistance in paying a social worker

On Vasilievsky Island, in a very ordinary house, there is a not so ordinary apartment. Everything here is made for the convenience of people who move around in wheelchairs, there is a place for friendly meetings and various activities. For two years now, this has been a cozy home for six people with severe disabilities and mental disabilities, whom Perspektivy helped to start a new, independent life. Most of them moved here from a psychoneurological boarding house. Every day, the wards are supported and accompanied by the organization's employees.

One of the residents of the apartment is Vitaliy. Previously, he lived in a boarding house, where in 2001 Perspektivy opened an art studio. Here Vitaliy managed to reveal his creative gift. Now he is a successful modern artist and poet, his paintings are exhibited in museums in Russia and abroad, three collections of poems with illustrations by the author have been published. People around him say that after the move, Vitaliy has become calmer, more relaxed, laughs and jokes more often. In a new life, at home, almost every day is busy with something interesting.

Today the project needs your support. The funds will go to pay for the work of a social worker — a specialist who is always there and strives to make the lives of the wards bright and full, helps with hygiene, in everyday life, on trips.
