Giving our support to Ukrainian refugees - Europe

Giving our support to Ukrainian refugees - Europe

Monday, May 16, 2022

Ukraine | We are deeply saddened by the war in Ukraine. We couldn't stay idle in this situation. So, last week we filled 10,000 (!!) backpacks with art materials for Ukrainian parents and children.

Backpacks to bring some color

These backpacks will be spread all over Europe to bring some color in these extremely sad situations.

All our foreign affiliates and colleagues abroad can order these bags and donate them to great initiatives for Ukrainian refugees.

Other initiatives to help

In addition to the backpacks, we have also donated many art materials to initiatives throughout Europe. Everywhere artists and teachers are drawing and painting with Ukrainian children to let them forget the sad circumstances for a while.
