"I was left alone. There is no one to help me"

I worked all my life as a milkmaid on a collective farm. I earned a small pension. I lived with my daughter and her family. But when the fighting started in our region, my daughter and son-in-law were left without work and had to leave our city.

I was left alone. There is no one to help me. A lot of money is spent on medicine. I regularly receive humanitarian aid from Rinat Akhmetov Foundation. For us, pensioners, this is a great help.
