Uman Woman's Prison
Hope Now began its work in Prison 129 in Uman in 2000. An upper room was converted into a chapel and immediately a group of between 40 and 60 women began attending the weekly services.
Mindful that the women faced much physical hardship, the charity provided funds to refurbish the antiquated and unhygienic toilets.
Because husbands rarely ever visit the incarcerated wives, family links are poor. Children are often taken into state care with no contact between them and their mothers. Therefore Hope Now has undertaken to locate the children and to let mothers know how they are.

Preluki Boys Detention Centre.
In 1996 Alexander Lenets, a discharged believer from Prison 62, Cherkassy, moved to Preluki. He was soon given permission to commence a weekly ministry to the boy's (14 - 18 year olds) in Preluki Detention Centre. A year later Hope Now provided funds to convert a room into a chapel. Later a much larger hall was converted into a chapel to accommodate the increasing number of young men attending.
In 1998, in response to a plea from hungry boys and a subsequent letter from the Prison Chief, Hope Now gave funds to install a new bakery and purchase food for what might otherwise have been a winter of deprivation.
Mr. Lenets has now been appointed as the recognised Chaplain.

Prison No.62
Prison No.62 was where the work of Hope Now began in Ukraine.
Under the leadership of Anatoly Perepilitsa, $500 was given back in 1992 to convert a room at the prison into a small chapel. Vic Jackopson was invited back for the opening, and about three times a year for baptismal services held in full view of the rest of the prisoners as the Christian congregation increased. The numbers of believers grew so much that a larger chapel was constructed inside a prison dormitory block.
With the chapel already full during most services, permission was granted by the governor to build a 350-seat church in the centre of the prison. Alongside this is a Christian study centre and dormitory block, essentially a Bible School inside a prison. There is also a new gym for the prison. This "Freedom" Church was opened in July 1999.
Much humanitarian aid has been taken to the prison in the form of clothing and bedding. A complete dental surgery was installed in the prison hospital, which eventually spawned the charity Dentaid and many future dental projects outside of the prison context. The prison bakery has been updated with new equipment as the government continues to reduce funding for prison institutions.
Hope Now had excellent relations with Alexander Tarasenko, the former prison governor; In the summer of 1998 he visited UK with his family and toured British prisons to view the "system". During that time he made a confession of faith. When he was sacked from his post, he joined the staff of Hope Now and currently heads up the prison department.

Moya Oselya (My Dwelling Place) halfway house
Anatoly Perepilitsa, the man who instigated and oversees the prison ministry in Prison 62 also had a desire to help Christian prisoners when they were released from prison. After spending several years in prison, some re-adjustment is needed when they are released. The Christian prisoners have an especially difficult time because they need to adjust to a new Christian life that they have never experienced outside the prison.
Anatoly owned a small piece of land quite close to the prison, and with the financial support of Hope Now has built a hostel where ex-prisoners can stay, either short or long term. Many of the furnishings in the hostel were brought from England on Hope Now aid trucks.
It is also important to teach ex-prisoners some skills or trade, and so there is a pasta factory, a carpentry shop and a garage for mechanical work. Over the last few years many people have stayed in the hostel

Pollsmore Prison
Pollsmore Prison is the largest prison in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. It is not just one prison but five prisons on one huge site housing some 8,000 inmates and employing over 1,000 staff. Its claim to fame is that it held Nelson Mandela before his release and subsequent election as President. A large number of the prisoners are awaiting trial and a huge amount of the crime is drug/gang-related. The spiritual hunger in the prison is palpable from the first moment that you step inside - and indeed is the reason why Vic Jackopson was so attracted to getting involved at the prison. Happily, this need is recognised and matched by the enthusiastic support of prison management, which has endorsed the Christian work and promotion of the Gospel within Pollsmore.
