“Christmas for All” is a beautiful solidarity initiative led by the NGO ASTOVOT to bring joy and the magic of Christmas to children in the Zomayi neighborhood and surrounding areas. In an environment where opportunities for entertainment are rare, this project transforms the association’s library and its surroundings into a place of celebration and sharing for more than ten days.
Games, activities, workshops, and celebrations brighten the daily lives of children, many of whom do not have the chance to receive gifts or treats during this period. Thanks to “Christmas for All,” they can experience unique moments of happiness, dreams, and togetherness, while strengthening solidarity within the community.
