Making a difference

We may remember the Chernobyl gas plant tragedy years ago, but how many of us think of what the victims have gone through, or what has happened to them since?

The plight of the children touched the heart of one man: an Irish Christian brother---Br. Liam O’Meara, and he has since worked miracles in Belarus.
The latest in a series of measures has been the opening of a new Day care center in Cherven.

There are many others like Br.Liam, and volunteers who come from far and near, working on different projects to bring health, solace and cheer to the suffering.

This site gives a glimpse of how they are making a difference……
