Luxury should be useful, p.1

Many of our compatriots heroically sacrificed their lives for Ukraine, many families were forced to leave their homes, left on the street to save their lives. As part of Ukrainian Fashion Week S/S 2015 The Jewelry House ZARINA proudly presents the new blue and yellow patriotic jewelry collection, which is unique not only by their charm, but also by their mission: 10% of the cost of each jewelry sold will be donated to help children.

"Sure, kids left without proper care, custody, home heat, are not to blame. When a child suffers, we have a feeling of supreme injustice. Children are our future generation, in which we need to breathe in energy, strength, give them a decent development, education, health – tomorrow they will build a happy peaceful and secure the best Ukraine" – said Natalia Netovkina, founder of the Jewelry House ZARINA.

This is the project to help people from the East of Ukraine. Our project is a story of people who managed to leave the combat zone and avoid death. They fled from the common threat, but everyone has their own story what hurts the heart. All these families have children. They did not received wages and welfare payments. Only our support can help them cope with their grief.

Charitable organization "Home of happy children" arranged a refugee camp where these people can have a shelter, food, teacher’s assistance for kids, medical and psychological help.

Even though our organization is specialized in helping children who were abandoned from their parents, we could not watch the situation in Ukraine without supporting those who suffer. We have committed ourselves to assist refugees, but we will not succeed without your help.

With your support we have already raised funds to pay for the accommodation for these families in summer. Today there is not enough money again, so we ask you for help. We have to raise money to be able to buy a washing machine, an electric stove, an oven, oil heaters, household chemicals, food, to pay for utility services during the autumn months and to pay a rent for the house where the camp was organized.

All the people who had to leave their homes to escape from war have their own stories, tragedies and sorrows. Yet, there is one common thing about all of them. The families can't help asking why it's them who have to bear this misery. They keep asking: "Why our kids who cry, why our homes have been bombed and destroyed and we have lost everything earned by hard work for many years…". When things like that happen, life seems to be unfair. Though, it's not true, and we can prove it if we don't leave people who suffer. Even though there may be no sense in such tragedies, we are sure that this grief will teach us to be more compassionate and help those who are in need.
