Thank you for everything you do, Anna, and for showing us the reality of people with real problems. I believe we can rebuild the school, and peace will return to our country and our city ❤️

I am so afraid that bombs and burns are still available by Russian side, though some Russian soldiers were against war and their officer killed them on the spot. In Russian army is such a disorder, 11 Generals in the prison for the theft of the State money, as the Russian You Tube broadcasts, but ,unfortunately, war is still continues. Anna, thank you for your article about these inspiring people and their school.

Sad, but inspiring, in equal measure. These people deserve the world - they are just real everyday people trying to make the best of life, for them and others. We wish them all the very best.

I love these people and the way they, as you say, do things on a shoestring. It really looks like hardships are drawing out the best of human resources. Three cheers...

What a heart rendering story. Even under the brutal siege of Russian invaders, Ukrainians seek knowledge and normalcy. Meanwhile Russians bask in the ignorance of war criminal Putin a pathetic little man. Ukraine will survive and be a better people for having defeated the Russian hordes of ignorance.
