Stories of real people about volunteering
Julia Medvedeva
A young mother on maternity leave Yulia Medvedeva could not confine herself to caring for only her baby - she felt that her strength was enough for the world of other children who were not lucky in this life to have a mother: “I also had a difficult childhood, so I know what it is this is. And now I am also a mother, so I know exactly how to find an approach to other children. I think that we need to change life for the better on our own, not pinning hopes on wizard officials who will come and put things in order. " Yulia's most creative idea was the creation of a puppet theater for orphanages, which now collects sold out young spectators.
