Belarussian Orphanage Project

Love . Dignity . Integrity . Respect

BOPSHOP! is a special initiative where BOP retails the Arts and Crafts made by the residents of 3 of our institutions to raise funds for our projects.

We also stock a wide range of Traditional Belarussian Souvenirs from Minsk.

We retail from BOP Head office at Blackrock in Cork City but we also provide the goods to those who host raffles, craft fairs, coffee mornings etc throughout the country.

Occasionally we host stands at shopping centre's and car boot sales.

From everything we sell 100% of the profits go to a particular project or to our Belarussian Staff Wages Fund. ( this is our team of Belarusian Women who care for our kids during The Sale of Arts and crafts ensures funds for the residents who participate in these programmes in Draznia and Viacha, while the kids in Novinki benefit from new radios, tv’s etc from the sale of their hand made greeting cards.

We also import and sell the famous traditional Babuska or  Mattrioska Nesting Dolls which come in sets of 5, with small retailing for €8, Medium €15 and Large €20 euro a set, Russian Hats (€10/€15),

A large variety of handmade seasonal festive decorations, (our Christmas shop is open from Late October each year)

And we can even post out any particular piece to you.

Prices for goods start at €2 and all funds raised go to the Charity.

If you would like to host a BOP Souvenir night in your home for your friends, family and neighbours then we will facilitate you with the handouts, posters and goods…

BOP also retails a range of branded clothes from Hoodies €25 (Zipped and Unzipped) and Fleece Jackets €30 (Tailored and Untailored). Showerproof jackets €20 are also available.

 

The selection of items for sale varies as we get new items from Belarus on a regular basis and we update the file as these items go on sale.

 

Framed Oil Paintings by our residents..

In return for donations of €10 to €150 we will present our sponsor with a beautiful handpainted and framed Oil work of art. As the stock changes regularly, a photo file containing all the shots of the pictures we have in stock can be emailed to you upon request. Just send us a note requesting the file to; bop1@eircom.net.

Each painting includes a letter of appreciation from the artist.
