Warm Wave Initiative: Celebrating Teacher's Day in Odesa
In Odesa, a charity initiative called «Warm Wave» was held ahead of Teacher's Day, aimed at uniting educators, children, and their parents in a spirit of goodwill.
Students and teachers organized fairs where they sold handcrafted items made with love by their families.
The atmosphere in schools was filled with warmth and sincerity. The fair managed to raise 2,156,360.42 UAH.
«I want to thank all the educators of Odesa, the children, and every family that participated in the fairs and contests, especially Natalia Kartasheva for supporting our defenders,» said Olena Buynevych, the Head of the Department of Education and Science.
The funds were collected via «Monobank» and transferred to the account of the «Southern Shore» Charity Foundation after the event.
«Today, we have already received our first critical orders for tourniquets and bandages, which are directly related to saving lives,» noted Natalia Kartasheva, a representative of the foundation.

A tourniquet is an essential tool for stopping critical bleeding in field conditions. It applies pressure to the damaged vessel, effectively halting both venous and arterial bleeding, especially after wound tamponade, and prevents excessive blood loss.
