Christmas is a time when homes are filled with light, when we believe in miracles and want to give kindness. However, when the war is outside the window, and only a field of ashes remains in the place of the house, the holidays become just a memory.
Therefore, the gift that fits in our boxes can become a small miracle - a tangible message that they are not alone.
This year, our campaign is dedicated to SOLDIERS OF THE POKROVSKY FRONT, who defend their land and our common freedom.
