The International Institute of Optimal Solutions Foundation (MIOR) implemented a large-scale charitable project to support the well-being and recovery of children of service members from the 12th Special Forces “Azov” Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine. 100 children traveled to the scenic Calabria region in Italy to attend two camps.
The initiative was made possible with the support of the Apostolic Nuncio to Ukraine, Visvaldas Kulbokas, who backed the effort to support the well-being and psychological recovery of the children of Ukrainian defenders.
The camps offered a rich and engaging experience. The children stayed on the Ionian Sea coast, swam daily, and took part in sports activities, team competitions, creative workshops, and cultural excursions. They also enjoyed evenings dedicated to Italian culture, along with interactive sessions focused on teamwork and peer support.
All participants were provided with essential items for a comfortable stay, including branded T-shirts, caps, and backpacks, symbolizing unity and care. Throughout the camps, the children were supported by mentors and medical staff.
According to the organizers, the main goal of the project was to give children a sense of safety, joy, and a carefree childhood. Upon returning home, participants shared positive experiences, new friendships, and gratitude for the opportunity to rest and recharge by the sea.
The foundation expresses sincere thanks to all partners and donors who contributed to this initiative and helped create a summer filled with warmth, care, and hope for the children of Ukrainian defenders.
