TOUCH—Build Playground
In 2008, the Nu Skin Force for Good Foundation continued its relationship with Take One Ukrainian Child’s Hand (TOUCH) by donating funds to expand the outdoor playground at the Chaslivtski Orphanage, a refuge to 110 abandoned or orphaned children. The playground, which was completed in September, includes a basketball and handball court, as well as a soccer field.

TOUCH—Build School #14
The Nu Skin Force for Good Foundation has established a long-standing relationship with Take One Ukrainian Child's Hand (TOUCH) to help needy children, particularly orphans, in the Ukraine. In 2007, the Foundation once again agreed to fund a TOUCH project in order to rebuild School #14. This is a very poor school close to the Uzhgorod Roma camp in the Ukraine. Workers repaired the walls and roof; they replaced the floors, doors, and windows, and gave each room a new coat of paint. This work has created a more encouraging, cheerful, and stimulating environment for these students and their teachers.

TOUCH Project
The Nu Skin Force for Good Foundation made its fourth donation to the Touch Project to expand the outdoor playground area at the Chaslivtsi orphanage in the Ukraine. Equipment purchased includes basketball and volleyball courts and the expansion of the rehabilitation center.

Previous donations include:

• Donated funds to provide upgrades to a facility used for Ukrainian orphans along with education supplies for the children
• Donated funds to remodel one of the buildings at the Chaslivsti Orphanage into a laundry facility in 2004
• Donated funds to purchase 120 beds, mattresses, pillows, blankets, linens and a new playground facility for the Chaslivsti Orphanage in 2002
