Every day in the news, there are reports of the destruction of Ukrainian libraries, bookstores, and printing houses by invaders. Therefore, our goal of providing Ukrainian children with reading in their native language becomes increasingly important. And we sincerely thank everyone who joined the book collection project “Good Night”!
The first to join our collection were employees of IT-Integrator and Accord Group companies. Part of the collected books is already bringing joy to little Ukrainians who are staying with their parents in Japan.
Then students from schools in Kyiv and the Kyiv Palace of Children and Youth made a powerful contribution to our project. Today, we want to remember and thank all the donors and participants in the collection who picked up the baton after the schools.
The Faculty of Eastern and Slavic Philology of KNLU turned out to be the champion in book collection in February!
Students and teachers collected almost 100 books for children. Students from the American University Kyiv even organized a competition between faculties to see who could collect more children’s literature. Friendship won, as always, as well as the children who will soon have the opportunity to read their favorite fairy tales in Ukrainian.
It is pleasing that libraries supported the book collection. In particular, the team of the Yaroslav the Wise National Library of Ukraine. As well as the OCIUM Library in Rusanivka, where a unique space has been created for communication with books, learning, and development.
Another thank you goes to responsible businesses and personally to Yulia Ublinsky, founder and CEO of GoBeauty Studios Ukraine, for organizing book collection at three studio locations and in OSBBs.
The Ukrainian office of Tech Fabric also joined the book collection in Dnipro. Employees collected children’s books and sent them to the address of the “Educational Initiatives Fund.”
Special thanks to the members of the book club Kyiv Book Club “5K” and personally to Igor Rozhkov, for popularizing reading, book donations, and the financial contribution from the club’s benefactor – Luis Kolman-Shestak for the purchase of books for 10,000 UAH.
We also express our gratitude for the informational support and books sent to:
Bohdan Yegorov (Book Bunker), Marina Manyahina, Kostyantyn Kovalevsky, Volodymyr Matuzko, Denis Voloshyn.
In total, since the beginning of the year, thanks to you, we have collected almost 1500 books!
All collected books are already on their way to centers of Ukrainians in Poland, Germany, and the Czech Republic. Next up is the United Kingdom. Thanks to you, it was a wonderful story, thank you sincerely!
