The football house became a festive residence for children for one day

According to a long-standing good tradition, on December 19, the day of St. Nicholas, children become special guests of the House of Football.

An excursion is held for the little ones, and the heads of the UAF present festive gifts. Unfortunately, this year, due to a long air disturbance, the event had to be postponed to the next day, December 20.

The guests of the House of Football this time were the children cared for by the NGO "Litai".

Natalya Kononska, a representative of this public association, said that the organization was created in 2014 and mainly takes care of children with special needs. But after the full-scale invasion of the Russian occupiers, children who left the temporarily occupied territories are now under the care of the foundation.

"Most of the children who visited the Football House today play football. It helps them endure the horrors they are experiencing in connection with a full-scale Russian invasion. Thank you to the leadership of the UAF for the invitation and the gifts," Natalya Kononska said.
