KKU Welcomes The Summit Country Day School in Ohio !
A truly remarkable event unfolded as students from Kalush Lyceum 2, Ivano Frankivsk Lyceum 11, and Lviv Physics and Maths Lyceum, all proud members of KidsKonnectUkraine, came together in a virtual Zoom meeting. Joined by their peers from the newly participating Lyceum 3 in Pershotraviansk, they eagerly welcomed new faces from across the ocean - students from The Summit Country Day School in the US.
In this virtual gathering, we didn't just share screens, we shared stories, dreams, and realities. The students from Ukraine bravely shared glimpses of their lives near the war zone, reminding of the resilience and strength within their communities. They spoke passionately about their schools, daily routines, and the things that bring them joy after the school bell rings.
It was a powerful reminder of the importance of global connections and empathy. Despite our geographical distances, we found common ground in our shared aspirations for education and understanding. Let's continue to bridge these divides, amplify each other's voices, and build a world where empathy and solidarity know no borders. Together, we can truly make a difference.
The Mission
What can we do for kids who are living through war, many with PTSD after being bombed out of their homes and becoming the equivalent of refugees within their own country? After all, kids need a chance to just be kids even when they’re designated IDP’s (Internally Displaced People)?
