“The last few weeks have put us in front of events heard so far only in history lessons. It’s not just stories, it’s all real facts. It’s something we’re trying to hide or run away from. But we don’t. We are here, we are together and we want to help and bring a double dose of love, a mountain of optimism and a ray of hope on the faces of the little ones. We are together for the children of Ukraine! On March 27, we gather in Club Control to raise as much money as possible with those from Save the Children. I would like to thank the 7 bands that accepted without hesitation to take part in this endeavor,” said Bogdan Munteanu, the organizer of the event.
“More than 100 children have been killed in the war in Ukraine and hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian children have been forced to flee their homes, schools, the country and take refuge in neighboring countries. It is a drama of great proportions, unprecedented in recent history. Most often, these children arrive in Romania scared, not understanding what is happening to them and when they will be able to return home. They need urgent humanitarian support, but also psycho-emotional assistance to cope. The Save the Children teams are on the ground from day one, in all refugee centers and at border crossings with Ukraine and Rep. Moldova, to provide humanitarian assistance “, said Gabriela Alexandrescu, Executive President of Save the Children Romania.
A bought ticket will enable access to the concert, but also a donation for Save the Children.
