Living conditions are currently very difficult for people of the Donbass area.

With some members of the NGO "Люди майбутнього - People of Tomorrow", Svyatoslav Vakarchuk gave slates to the residents so that they can repair buildings...

Vakarchuk is known as a man of compassion and conviction: He uses his fame to help causes that are dear to his heart.
In an interview he gave yesterday evening to the TV Channel "INTER", he encouraged people helping each other. It is this solidarity that will allow Ukrainians to find their way!

The message was clear:

"Everyone can help in some way: Like politicians, 

common people can work to build a new Ukraine!"

Further, with Denis Dudko, Svyatoslav performed yesterday evening his song "Обійми - Obijmy" during the TV show "Хоробрі серця - Braveheart" on the TV channel "1+1":


The topic of that TV show was "Love at war" and it was mainly based on volunteers' testimonials. Honestly, I could just watch a part of it as it moved me deeply.
Anyway, Svyatoslav is right: we should forget tears and keep joy in our heart...

Thank you, Slava, to lead the way and give us a good example!
