Did You Know?

Unlike the United States, most organizations in Russia celebrate winter holidays for over two weeks. The majority of individuals go on break before the New Year and extend their vacation well into January. As a result, most of the government agencies, as well as private enterprises do not work during this time. What this means for Children's Hope Russia families is that there will be no travel for court after December 27th, and no first trips after December 15th. This will extend until everyone returns to work on January 10, 2011.
