Providing material support for newborns is carried out from 2015 as part of a special social program launched by Mayor Ilan Shor and carried out jointly with the public association “Pentru Orhei”. Also, the social project is provided in the election program of Mayor Ilan Shor and, to date continues to be done step by step.
