Behind us in Sofiia is life under occupation, leaving our native Kherson under shelling, and difficult adaptation in another city. This spring, Sofiia took part in the Blogger Camp, organized as part of the Rinat Akhmetov to Children program. It was thanks to activities during her vacation that the girl realized what profession she would pursue.

According to the girl, there were a lot of interesting activities at the Blogger Camp, thanks to which she felt her leadership and learned how to work in a team. The project Your Super Profession became decisive for her.

“We were told about different professions and ways of doing things. I was just starting 11th grade and had to decide where to go. I realized that my choice was to be a journalist and bring people the truth about events,” says Sofiia.

Sofia also found important tips and answers in the Foundation’s Your Super Profession educational series.

“Now is a difficult time - we live not knowing what will happen tomorrow. It is very important to follow your heart. The Rinat Akhmetov Foundation helped me with this. It helped me open up and realize my dreams and desires,” says Sofiia.

The Rinat Akhmetov to Children program implements projects that comprehensively support boys and girls whose childhood was taken away due to Russian aggression.

Owing to the program, children receive treatment, hearing aids, undergo psychological and physical rehabilitation, and are able to develop and realize their dreams. During its operation, the Foundation’s assistance has reached more than 5 million children.

Part of the large-scale Rinat Akhmetov to Children program is the New Year’s campaign - a tradition that has been uninterrupted for 24 years. The Foundation’s team organizes holidays for children from boarding schools, family-type orphanages, and displaced children in various cities across the country.

Rinat Akhmetov to Children. Help that gives tomorrow.
