Our shelter was visited by Konstantin Zhaldakov, Chairman of the Council on IDP Issues at the Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration, and Yuriy Onishchenko, member of the Council on IDP Issues, as part of their monitoring visits to temporary accommodation facilities for internally displaced persons in Dnipro with the aim of assessing the needs of displaced persons.

Humanitarian aid was delivered to the shelter – drinking water supplies and fuel vouchers, prepared in cooperation with the Charitable Foundation “Promotion and Development.” The young residents of the shelter also received sweet gifts from the guests.

During the meeting between representatives of the Council on IDP Issues and Talina Zharikova, head of the Dobro na Amuri Charitable Foundation, a number of problematic issues were raised concerning shelter and requiring urgent resolution. In addition, Konstantin Zhaldaakov met with shelter residents and talked to them about their current needs and the problems they face every day. He personally familiarized himself with the living conditions of IDPs in the shelter by visiting the common areas and residents’ living quarters.

“Today, I met many fellow countrymen from Luhansk region. I am an internally displaced person myself and understand perfectly well the difficulties people face. That is why, if I can help, I will do everything in my power,” said Konstantin Zhaldakov, commenting on his visit.

The meeting took place in a friendly atmosphere and left a pleasant impression.

We are very grateful to the representatives of the Council on IDP Issues for caring for the residents of our shelter and trying to resolve the issues that concern them.
