Despite the problems everyone wants  fun and memorable holidays!  Especially children. And the day has come! Annually Zaporizhzhya regional public organization "Florence" brings joy and hope to the little and big friends – organizes an integrative concert "World of Big Hearts". 

“ We work with children with special needs, and they need support , to  smile and get some joy in  life. That’s why an annual  integrative concert is a chance for our children to get these things "  told the  employee  of the "Florence Centre".  We are very happy  that every year the number of participants of our event increases. More and more schools, boarding schools, various educational institutions come to us for the holiday. It is very good that the children with special needs often take the stage as actors.

For the sixth time in a row the festival has brought together children of different ages and characteristics. Hundreds of children flocked to fun games arranged by student volunteers. Crosswords, mazes, crossing, bowling, wrestling, are just some of the contests, in which children could test their skills and ingenuity. 

The most fortunate were awarded tokens which could be exchanged for great prizes such as toys, coloring books, bubbles, balls. There were unusual services this year: the opportunity to learn to dance; to do origami; masters-hairdressers braided pigtails for girls and funny pictures on the faces of boys. A gypsy offered candies with predictions.
