Event «Unity holiday: the strength of Dniprorudny, the hope of Zaporizhzhia»
On December 3, on the basis of the Education Hub of Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic University, a solemn event «The Feast of Unity: the strength of Dniprorudny, the hope of Zaporizhzhia» was held, organized by the Dniprorudny City Military Administration. The event became significant for the entire community, which, despite the challenges of the war and the temporary occupation of the native city, continues to demonstrate unity, indomitability and faith in the future.
Participants of the holiday were greeted by the head of the Dnipro-Rudnen city military administration, Anton Kozyrev, who also awarded competition winners and community activists. The ceremony was attended by the Deputy Head of the Vasylivska District State Administration Yana Volyk, Director of the Department of Education and Science of the ZODA Olena Kazannikova, Andriy Mymryk, Deputy Director of the Don ZODA, as well as representatives of the district administration, juvenile police, public activists and athletes of the ZpGroup futsal club.
Pro-Rector Andriy Ivanchenko of Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic congratulated the participants of the event. He expressed his sincere admiration for the resilience and strength of spirit of the community’s residents.
After the ceremonial part, the guests participated in the opening of a new educational space – a safe, modern and fully equipped educational space in the main building of the Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic, where from now on the children of the Dniprorudna community will be able to study. This is another important step towards restoring the educational environment for those who were forced to leave their hometown due to the war.
The creation of this space was made possible thanks to strong international, regional and local support. The initiator of the project was the Dnipro-Rudnen city military administration. Within the framework of international cooperation, the non-profit organization «Krayany» (Japan), the association «Friendly Circle of Ukraine Bad-Oldesloe» (Germany), and the charitable foundation «UA FRI» joined the implementation. Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic University became an extremely important partner, providing premises and comprehensively supporting the initiative.
As part of the event for the children and youth of the community, a bright festive program was held for all age groups: the youngest joyfully welcomed St. Mykola, students of grades 5-8 competed in fun sports relays, and high school students took part in the Marathon in gratitude to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Zaporizka Polytechnic is forever your reliable support and support. Together we can do everything!
