Telšiai Ukrainians already have official partners

Congratulations to the Ukrainian community in Telšiai district for having official partners - the Ukrainian community of Mažeikiai. 25 March. A cooperation agreement between the charity and support foundation "Telšiai with Ukraine" and the Mažeikiai District Municipality Administration was signed in Mažeikiai District Municipality. The charity and support fund "Telšiai with Ukraine", headed by Algimantas Ubartas, has been providing various assistance to Ukrainian war refugees living in Telšiai District and throughout Samogitia for two years. As the Ukrainians living in the Mažeikiai district have already had to be helped several times, in order to join forces and to be able to respond more quickly and to be able to help them, the agreement covers issues of communication, sharing of information about vacancies, integration into the education system, not only for children, but also for adults, and the organisation of social activities.

It is hoped that thanks to this cooperation agreement, the Ukrainian communities of Telšiai and Mažeikiai districts will make friends and find close ties.

The camp brought refugee families together

On 20-24 February, several Ukrainian refugee families, supported by the Charity and Support Foundation "Telšiai with Ukraine", spent time in the camp. These dates were not chosen by chance to organise the family camp. The Foundation focuses not only on financial and social assistance to war refugees, but also on the employment of children and young people during the school holidays, encouraging the whole family to spend time together in a productive way, and bringing the Ukrainian community together. During the four days spent together at the rural tourist farm, the families not only rested, but also had group sessions with a psychologist, yoga lessons, education on glass, and organised educational trips and excursions to the town of Varniai (Telšiai region). After four days together, the families returned home not only rested, but also having made friends and strengthened the bond between children and parents. Therefore, we will be sure to invite refugee families to other similar camps organised by the Foundation.

Camp for children from Ukraine

On 3-7 July 2023, 17 Ukrainian children from different schools in the Telšiai district attended a camp at the Ubiškės Multifunctional Centre. The camp was organised by the Ubiškės Multifunctional Centre and financed by the charity and support fund "Telšiai with Ukraine", with which the Centre has been cooperating for the second year.

This year, the campers had a wide range of activities: they started with a get-to-know-you session, a talent show, sports competitions and excursions to the local area. The children took part in a workshop, presenting paintings made from plants collected in the Bivaine Forest. The day started with morning exercise and water treatments at the Ubiškės pond, where a safe bathing place has been created thanks to the efforts of the community.
