The "Happy Child" Charitable Fund and NGO "Public Control in Chernigovskiy District" under the "Ukraine Unitary" project arranged on January 23, 2015 a tour to the city of Zaporozhzhye for sixteen children from low-income and large families, children whose parents are participating in the military anti-terrorist operation in the East of Ukraine and for the students who take an active part in social and school life.

The children returned exhausted but happy and all of them were of the same opinion and stated unanimously - "it was cool". Elizoveta Sandulyak, a participant, wrote the following:

Last Friday, January 23rd, we (students of the district villages) visited the city of Zaporozhzhye. Firstly, we visited "Rola-Kolo" rolledrome and roller skated, it was very interesting and exciting. My friends and I enjoyed it very much. We also went to the circus and watched the program "Magic Wonderland".

"Magic Wonderland"

We were particularly impressed with the laser show and acting animals. We also enjoyed acrobats and calisthenics. In those moments, I felt like I was a part of a fairy-tale. The speech about family accompanied with light illumination almost drove to tears because in daily vanity we tend to forget about family values, our family circle and support of our loved ones. The day was filled with impressions and positive emotions. I want to thank Olesya Kulakova from the charitable organization "Happy Child", and Olga Stavytskaya from the "Public Control", Sergei Vladimirovich Oleksiyenko, the geography and history teacher, for the organization of this excursion.
