According to the director of the fund for family, motherhood and childhood support “Pokrov” Anna Kuznetsova, among the recipients are children with disabilities or from underprovided or large families.
“We also provide assistance to people who have recently come from Ukraine. Their children also need to go to schools, and since almost all of the resources of these families have been exhausted, many of them cannot afford to prepare for the new school year,” she said.
Anna Kuznetsova drew attention to the fact that the staff of fund “Pokrov” are still collecting donations.
“Currently, we need schoolbags, pencil cases, pencils, pens, notebooks, children’s markers and other stationery required for school. School uniform and sportswear are also required. In the future, we will need winter clothes for immigrants,” head of a charitable organization explained.
She urged the residents of Penza and the region to take an active part in action “Teach good.”
“Warehouse of charity fund ‘Pokrov’ collecting donations is located in Krasnaya gorka Street, 24,” Anna Kuznetsova noted.
