During the last week of 2019, those were the days of Hanukkah last year, a Charity Campaign «Hope4Hanukkah» took place. This initiative was launched eight years ago by Julia Goldenberg, Chairman of the Board of the All-Ukrainian Charitable Fund “To You” (ACF 2U), and Victoria Godik, Co-Chair of the Committee of the Diplomatic Corps of the World Jewish Congress.
In Kyiv and Cherkasy, Myrhorod and Bila Tserkva, Hanukkah lights brightened hundreds of homes due to the efforts of dozens of our volunteers of all ages who traditionally responded to our offer to greet the most needy and lonely representatives of the Jewish community and congratulate them with the holiday. Thus, for example, one of our volunteers, Aliona, visited elderly people with her daughter, who was younger than one year old, in another case sister invited her brother to visit and congratulate people together. These visits showed that it doesn’t matter how old you are, how busy you are, there is always a minute to pay attention to those who require attention and friendly company. Sincere gratitude to all those who made this 8th year possible and hope you will join us during our coming campaigns … #hope4hanukkah
