From heart to heart

The "Wave of Kindness" relay initiative brought volunteers to a shelter for internally displaced children with a vibrant hands-on workshop

Accepting the "kindness" challenge from Halom Volume with the task theme "From Heart to Heart," we created paintings together using lightweight clay

The children created paintings, experimented with colors, shapes, and textures, while also developing fine motor skills. Crucially, they could receive volunteer assistance at any stage, because the focus wasn’t on the end result, but on the joyful process itself, which fostered confidence and a sense of accomplishment.

Of course, there were sweet surprises - the little ones enjoyed treats before, after, and even during the workshop. This added even more joy and warmth to our gathering. The atmosphere was filled with genuine smiles, cheerful conversations, and friendly interactions, making every participant feel they weren’t alone - that there were always people nearby ready to offer support and share a bit of kindness.

These visits are more than just creative activities, they’re a genuine exchange of emotions, positivity, and kindness. And the greatest reward is the children’s beaming eyes and their vibrant masterpieces, crafted with love.
