Friends, what are your thoughts on Ukrainian children in Bulgaria right now? There is a beautiful saying that “there are no other people’s children.” As parents, we reflect daily not only on their present but also on trying to foresee their future. That’s how our subconscious works. However, we hope that everything will not only be good for them but even better than it was for us. Some of the Ukrainian children will return to Ukraine after the war ends—if, of course, they still feel like children at that point. Others will stay here for various reasons—whether because there is nowhere to return to, or because their parents decide to adapt to Bulgarian society, continue developing here, study, and rebuild their lives from scratch. Everyone will make their own choice. Many Bulgarians have donated money and time to Ukrainian families over the past year and a half and continue to do so. They have set an example of their open hearts to everyone around them and to themselves. The “Ukraine Support & Renovation” Foundation organizes various events for Ukrainian refugee children at Second Home. Currently, we are exploring additional opportunities to create new projects for children and adolescents, focusing on their development and meaningful use of their free time. It is always preferable for children to engage in productive activities rather than “sitting” online or aimlessly wandering the streets. The many sports and arts activities we discuss here traditionally play a vital role in society. At the moment, projects like the one at Plovdiv’s Second Home are being developed, dedicated to teaching young Ukrainians skills such as sewing, mending, and even designing. Thanks to the hard work of many citizens, we have managed to acquire one overlocker and three industrial sewing machines. This is simply incredible! We still need a little more to make the space accessible to more children—enabling 10–20 participants to join the initiative. Donations of additional industrial sewing machines, even if they are older but still functional, would be greatly appreciated. These machines would provide the children with invaluable group learning experiences under the careful guidance of adults, of course. Or perhaps you have similar tools or pieces of fabric that have been collecting dust for some time. A child would be delighted to test and experiment with anything that is no longer needed elsewhere but is related to sewing. We invite donors to join in the fun at Second Home as well, if they wish.
