Stories from volunteers

Hello, my name is Sergey Mitikov. Like many volunteers, it was the desire to help those in difficult situations that brought me to the center. The first step was participating in a social volunteering campaign. Although I ended up there by chance, it became clear to me - this is what I have been looking for!
Becoming a volunteer at the center, I participated in various events, one of which was the "Hanukkah Marathon." Within the framework of this project, various actions were held to coincide with the holiday. We tried to create a warm atmosphere for our wards and provided support to those in need.
Another aspect of volunteering for me is helping our smaller brothers. Without our support, they are completely defenseless, and this imposes a great responsibility on us. I believe that one of the manifestations of humanity is love for animals. And volunteering helps to realize it to the fullest!
Volunteering brings me great pleasure. Of course, there are certain difficulties, but together we always find ways to overcome any obstacles. Volunteering helps me gain valuable experience, meet interesting people, and at the same time feel that your help is important and you are truly making the world a better place!
