The 2006 Presbyterian House will be home to the Yelenets Family.
Volodymyr and Iryna Yelenets left Ukraine 4 years ago in search of a better life for their family. They currently live with their three daughters in a crowded apartment. Volodymyr, a mechanic for a heating and cooling company, and Iryna would like to raise their children in a family-oriented community, a place where their children can grow and play.
The Yelenets family is extremely kind, responsible, and caring.
