Ukraine Centre Offering Traditional Costumes To The Little Ones On Indépendance Day

On the occasion of the joint celebrations for Independence Day, Ukraine Centre was proud to contribute 33 traditional costumes to the children from Mariupol, who have found their new home in Bouveret. These vibrant costumes represent not just the rich cultural heritage of their homeland, but also the resilience and spirit of these young souls who have been through so much.

The decision to donate these costumes stemmed from our commitment to supporting the little ones from Mariupol, who have been displaced from their orphanage. We recognize the importance of maintaining cultural identity, particularly in times of hardship and displacement. By providing these traditional costumes, we hope to offer the children a sense of belonging and pride in their heritage, even as they integrate into a new community.

The Independence Day celebrations in Crissier provided the perfect opportunity to showcase these costumes. It was a joyous occasion filled with music, dance, and shared cultural expressions. The sight of the children donning their traditional attire was truly heartwarming. It not only added to the beauty of the event but also served as a reminder of the importance of cultural preservation and solidarity in times of crisis.

Our organization is dedicated to fostering a sense of community and belonging, and this contribution is just one of the many ways we aim to uplift and support these little ones and their amazing team!
