Community Room / Music Hall

Abashevo Children's Shelter is located in tiny Abashevo village, outside of Novokuznetsk.  There is little to do in the village and the climate itself limits the kids to indoor activities for much of the year.  Yet the aging home was poorly equipped with means for the kids to entertain themselves, and lacked comfortable facilities for the kids to commune, study, and play.  Last year, thanks to the efforts of Peter Reinhardt and a grant from Ernst & Young's Moscow office, we were able to completely remodel one of the larger rooms to serve as a common recreation room, with a very modern and warm appearance.  This year, thanks again to Mr. Reinhardt and Ernst & Young Moscow, we were able to renovate another of the home's larger rooms to create a modern and spatial community room for music, dance, and other activities.
