Gloriya is 4 years old. Two years ago, after a fire that destroyed her home, the girl ended up in an orphanage—her mother simply couldn't take care of her: left without housing, she spends all her time and energy working to rebuild their home.
"Gloriya is a very active girl," says a caregiver from the orphanage. "We call her 'little monkey' because she tries to climb and hang everywhere. She also loves everything bright and shiny—she gazes at it in fascination and even freezes in place."
In January 2026, during a visit by specialists from Fond «Doroga Zhizni», a nutritionist diagnosed the girl with chronic protein-energy deficiency and prescribed nutritional support.
Now, after a three-month course, Gloriya has not only gained weight but also muscle mass. She now has the strength for what she longs to do—explore the world around her: jumping, climbing, and, finally, just being a child.
At the orphanage in Mariy El, besides Gloriya, three other children needed special therapeutic formulas. Thanks to you, we were able to pay for three months of nutrition for two of these children.
Thank you for your compassion! We cannot change these children's diagnoses, but together with you, we have given them stable nutrition—a vital step toward improving their quality of life and supporting their health.
