From February 4 to 20, on the occasion of the Day of Heroes of the Heavenly Hundred, the Donetsk Regional Palace of Children's and Youth Creativity held a regional challenge marathon "The Light That Never Fades," which united the hearts of young patriots of Donetsk region. More than 700 students from extracurricular and general secondary education institutions in the region joined in honoring the memory of the Heroes.
The children of Donetsk region responded sincerely and with deep respect to the call to preserve the memory of the Heroes. As part of the marathon, they:
- created crafts, drawings, collages, and digital illustrations symbolizing the indomitable Ukrainian spirit;
- photographed memorial plaques commemorating the Heroes of the Heavenly Hundred in various cities of Ukraine;
- wrote original poems and shared their thoughts on the values of Dignity and Freedom;
- lit candles of remembrance, took photos, and explained why it is important for them to keep this sacred flame alive today.
Each work was an expression of gratitude, respect, and awareness of responsibility for the future of our country. May the candles of remembrance burn in our hearts with an eternal flame of gratitude to those who gave their lives for the fate, will, independence, and freedom of a united Ukraine.
Heroes never die! Glory to Ukraine!
