A group of Russian mothers visited the Ursuline Sisters creche to present donations to the children at the home.

The women are the participants at the Calendar of Friendship between Malta and Russia, organised by Women’s Planet, a Russian foundation which supports the family, motherhood and children, run by Ekaterina Camilleri.

The project started several months ago and its objective is to unite socially active Russian mothers living in Malta and turn them into ‘ambassadors of goodwill’.

The Russian mothers also presented handmade toys and decorations by Russian orphans to the children at the creche.

“Such projects are very important because they promote motherhood and family values, strengthen relationships between Russia and other countries and focus on children in need,” the organisers said.
