Imperial Russian Society for the Protection of the Children

The Imperial Russian Society for the Protection of Children was an organization founded in the late 19th century to improve the welfare of disadvantaged children in Russia. It focused on raising awareness about child neglect and abuse, providing education, healthcare, and shelter, and advocating for legal reforms to protect children's rights. The society worked with government authorities, local communities, and charitable groups to create safer environments and better opportunities for vulnerable children, aiming to foster their well-being and integrate them into society as healthy, productive individuals.
