I'd like to blame it all on Irma Bombeck. It is her fault that my children are giddy with anticipation as my husband and I wait nervously for the arrival of a child at a San Francisco Airport terminal. In her poem "If I Had My Life to Live Over," Bombeck wrote: "I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained and the sofa faded." In my family's case, the carpet is stained and the sofa faded, but we have invited a child we have never met and know nothing about to become a member of our family for six weeks.

Russian is the most geographically widespread language of Eurasia, the most widely spoken of the Slavic languages, and the largest native language in Europe. Russian belongs to the family of Indo-European languages and is one of three (or, according to some authorities, four) living members of the East Slavic languages, the others being Belarusian and Ukrainian (and possibly Rusyn, often considered a dialect of Ukrainian).

The Chernobyl Children's Project relies upon the generous support of corporations and individuals just like you. Perhaps you are aware of a friend or neighbor who has participated in the CCP's efforts. In fact, we hope someone you know -- either an employee, colleague, or friend -- referred this Web site to you because their family hosted a child. If that is the case, then they can tell you more eloquently than written words what the experience meant to them.

It is truly amazing how much activity can be packed into a six-week summertime visit! Click the photo thumbnails below to view the image.
This gallery is just a small sample of the photos CCP host families have taken during the Belarusian children's visits.

Junior Ambassadors Annika Erickson and Meaghan McMahon put together a fantastic slideshow presentation of photos taken from the 2006 visit.
When you click "View the Show" the slideshow will open in a new window.
 

Every year the CCP host familes come together to put on a talent show. The following song is performed by four Belarussian children.
