WHO: Together for Others is the charity work stream of the non-profit organization "Strategy and Leadership," founded in 2023 by Amb. (ret.) Dr. Réka Szemerkényi. The Gala is co-organized and sponsored by The Azar Foundation for Children of the World which was founded by Ms. Shahin Mafi.
WHY: Children are the most vulnerable in every conflict. We cannot erase the suffering or undo the losses from their lives. What we can do is to send the message of hope and confidence. Hope, that peace will come back to their lives, and confidence, that they will be able to develop their talents and rebuild their country.
HOW: Our partner – Science4People in Germany and Skola+ and SavED in Ukraine will deliver the supplies directly to the children in Ukraine.
