When Ukraine gained independence in 1991 it gave more opportunities to the development of Jewish life. Hesed was established in Uzhhorod in 1999. This organization has become a part of our life. Hesed takes care of all Jews: from babies to elderly people. Regretfully, I got severely ill at that time and couldn’t take an active part in Hesed work. However, my wife Raisa has become a volunteer in Hesed. She still works there. She helps Jewish old people. Hesed does much to revive the Jewish life.
