We need advice!

We want to organize for the summer for children from socially vulnerable families useful and powerful training, trainings and something like that.
That regardless of the social status of their family, children like others have access and opportunities for quality and practical knowledge!
Among the ideas we want are:
?Financial Literacy Training - we are looking for contacts of a professional coach who has experience working with children, possibly in the form of a game Cash flow, etc.
?Basics of healthy eating - an interesting cognitive lecture with elements of the game - also maybe someone will advise someone who could conduct.
We also ask you to advise some more interesting topics, trainings that would be suitable for teenagers !!!
? Let's go together Let's fill with ideas how interesting and useful to spend the summer for teenagers who are brought up in families with difficult life circumstances!

REPORT! Action Shoe a Child from a Needy Family.

Let's hurry to report:
Back in December, we managed to buy warm winter boots for girls and guys.
And now we were able to buy sneakers for older children.
After all, we have enough things for the little ones. But older children are often deprived!
We sincerely thank you to each of you who joins! Thanks to your support, we were able to entertain a few children who, because of the problems of their family, oh how not sweet. But the children are not to blame!?
Charity event #VzuyDitinu continues on an ongoing basis! We will buy shoes as much as possible (if there are funds) and as needed for the season.
You can support children on our site with the help button:
And let your children and family never know the need?

We are learning

No snow, no disease, no lockdown prevents us from learning ?
This together with Victoria Sadovska passed online training.
Already the third module of training from Lviv Educational Foundation according to the program "Children, the specialist and me".
Very useful topics: "Nonviolent communication, empathy, burnout, roles and responsibilities of various actors in the child protection system."

Thank you:

for very useful information, practical work, experience, organization.

Especially relevant about burnout .. With our pace, mega activities, a bunch of challenges, difficulties .. How many times are we with Yura Gupalo
tired just "fell". But, an incredibly powerful force, an incredibly deep motivation - raises again and again.
God leads, directs, gives strength, inspiration, vision, support in our work. But, our responsibility is to learn to regulate correctly, to set boundaries, to stop in time, to take into account our needs, to recover ... Because a person who does not know how to help himself cannot help others. God Himself says: "I want mercy, not sacrifice" ❤️
The wave of activity carries us with great speed and power. Often, this is detrimental to personal interests, family, and even health. But, we are learning ? I believe that it will be possible to change, normalize, bring everything to the level of wise service, reduce speed and help with quality.
These final stages of repair in the new center are at maximum speed, because the masters work very productively, one process adjusts another. But I hope that we will open the "Social Pantry" and get to that convenient speed ?

A SMALL REPORT OF OUR GREAT WORK FOR 2020.

Although last year was difficult, unpredictable, unstable, looking back we can safely say: We are well done, we are all with you?!
In 2020, we helped 1706 persons of total weight 12.5 tons!!!?
Thanks to your support, faith, help, we were able not only not to stop working, but also in addition to helping hundreds of people and children in need, to make steady repairs in the Center for Assistance "Social Chamber"!
After all, it is the Social Chamber that will be able to unite those who have the opportunity to help and those who need it. And as a result, this synergy will give impetus to change and exit from the crisis: training, development, support, information This is just a small list of what we can do.
Everyone who needs it will find support and help here!
Join us!

Nicholas comes to every 2020!

Nicholas comes to everyone! Even if children from needy socially vulnerable families; even if from remote villages; even if the mother raises herself or the father raises several children himself; even if the children are seriously ill; even if the mother does not have, but the grandmother takes care of; even if he has lost hope - Saint Nicholas will present a fairy tale with the help of kind, open and merciful people!
?
It was necessary to see: these shining, enthusiastic eyes of children? who received bright, beautiful gifts from the real Nicholas!
?
This year we changed the format of the holiday: we delivered gifts that the best benefactors helped us prepare for children from socially crisis families! We had 2 teams of volunteers. Some were taken to children in Lviv, while others went to the villages with Mykola.
?
All children sincerely thanked for such necessary gifts!
And we join in thanking for things, gifts, sweets, tangerines, money - all this allowed us to create a holiday and a real fairy tale!
Browse the photos, look for your packages, and the children for whom they were intended.
Important: some packages we repackaged in a box and bright gift paper, some bags were torn during transportation, so we also repackaged.
We also sent gifts to some families by mail, because they live far away, it was physically difficult to deliver (we add a video, later we will receive a photo of receipt from the family).

We had such cool lights on the car (below in the tape you can see the photo?).

Anu, confess, who saw us on the roads of Lviv on December 18 ?!
