224 heating points for the homeless are
routinely opened as winter sets in. One of these points was opened in the
lodging and rehabilitation shelter for the poor at Chulkovka. As the day goes
on, all habitants are leaving: some persons – to work, some – to hospital, some
– in unknown direction. But in the evening all of them return to have
guaranteed hot meal and stay overnight. Frankly speaking, the State
appropriates insufficient funds for the shelters. This money is hardly enough
to buy tea for the habitants. And philanthropists bring the rest of necessary
stuff.
