Imagine the situation: a small child, all dressed up, standing in the middle of a noisy city all alone. Or a toddler sitting at a bus stop, abandoned by everyone else. Or there is a box at the door of a store, and in it, instead of bananas, there is a little newborn lump. This is how many of the stories of children who end up with the status of "orphan" begin. The walls of the Donetsk boarding school√1, where 197 children live, tell many such stories... These are the tragic fates of 56 children from the children's social shelter, children whose parents were killed, found on the streets or taken from dysfunctional parents. And while the children are waiting, life goes on, and with it the holidays.
The sadness of these stories makes our hearts sink... And these children live with the knowledge that they were once abandoned and left behind... Do you know what the most amazing thing is? That even after a series of betrayals, these kids still believe in miracles and the magic of the New Year! It was for them that we tried to organize a magical matinee! Unfortunately, because of the epidemiological situation we weren't able to organize a full-scale matinee with a show program! But looking into the happy children's eyes, we realize that the New Year's miracles didn't miss the children! Each child reverently opened his long-awaited name gift and was surprised that Santa Claus prepared for him exactly what the child's heart dreamed of!
This was made possible thanks to you, our kind residents of the Republic and Bright Wizards. Your response was off the charts, and with your precious help we managed to not only give the children the desired presents, but also provide them with hygiene kits and stationery, as well as delight them with delicious and healthy fruit. Can you imagine, together with you we congratulated 253 children and brought bright colors and miracles into their lives! Magical, isn't it?
Thank you to each of you for your responsiveness, sensitivity and generosity! Thank you for such a reverent attitude to the selection of children's gifts! Thank you for the parental way you took care of these kids!
