On February 16, 2018, leaders of the NGO Ukrainian School of Elites — Anzhela Danelian and Olena Polkhovska — joined a charitable initiative to support children with special needs who required transportation to access the rehabilitation center.

To believe in kindness, one must start by doing good! We are proud to announce that today, February 16, 2018, the keys to a bus for the Strong in Spirit Foundation were handed over!

This celebration was made possible thanks to the compassion and efforts of many individuals who took part in organizing and supporting two charity auctions, “Gift a Child a Fairy Tale.” The result is a newly purchased minibus that will enable children facing serious illnesses to reach the “Fairy Tale World” rehabilitation center on their own magical bus.

Our heartfelt gratitude goes to the organizers and all auction participants: the Kyiv Museum of History, Tetiana Kostenko, Anzhela Danelian, Olena Polkhovska, Varvara Sukhenko, Lesya Kornichenko, Rivil Kofman, Valentina Dzyganskaya, Svitlana Bondarenko, Irina Serbin, Iryna Baranovska, Alla Sokol, Serhii Husovskyi, Sergii Ovsiienko, Vasyl Koldra, Oleksii Polkhovskyi, Petro Suslensky, Sergii Kharchuk, Yevhen Vytochkin, and Mykola Zinchenko.

Special thanks to the artists whose works were sold at the auction: Albert Feldman, Volodymyr Podlevsky, Volodymyr Mykytenko, Matviy Vaisberg, Vladyslav Shereshevsky, Konstantin Kalynovych, Nataliia Roi, Roman Minin, Igor Abramovych, Vadim Bondero, Andrey Tsoy, Lika Spivakovska, Konstantin Kozemyaka, Olena Priduvialova, Misha Sydorenko, Tetiana Korol, Petro Smetana, Alla Alekseeva, Dina Rozen, Yura Shapoval, Vartan Markarian, and Liza Repko.

None of this would have been possible without your participation.

May your kindness and generosity return to you a hundredfold!
