I WILL Nikolaev Orphanage Visit in 2002

These were the very first visits that allowed us to make direct, heartfelt connections with the children and those who cared for them.
During these early trips, the spirit and purpose of I WILL began to take shape. Seeing the children’s faces, hearing their stories, and witnessing their needs firsthand inspired our first projects β€” initiatives focused on education, care, and opportunity.

What began as a simple visit grew into a lifelong commitment. From that moment on, I WILL was not just an idea β€” it was born in compassion, purpose, and action.
