New Thing is your love in action, inside the former Soviet Union

Curious about where NewThing.net came from?

A report from Doug Brendel to all who support or follow New Thing in Belarus...

When your home address is “nowhere”

Lunch on the go ... with love

The “League of Good” is a network of homes for the homeless of Minsk.

Our “Response of the Heart” team has delivered food, clothing, toiletries, and other aid.

But now, the League is branching out.

To reach people who still have no “fixed place of residence,” especially outside the city where resources are scarce, League volunteers hit the road.

“Response of the Heart” rented a bus and League workers headed to suburban Zaslavl to serve hot meals.

This unique outreach offers New Thing-funded food, disposable tableware, sanitary and hygiene products.

Guests board the bus to get out of the cold and enjoy a warm meal.

(Thanks to friends giving to New Thing without being asked. You made it possible!)

Meanwhile, the “Response of the Heart” team continues helping homeless folks with medications, legal help, and other support.

Thanks for journeying with New Thing. More adventures to come!

Much love,

Doug Brendel
