For reference:

The Charity Fair, held in 2024 at the Diplomatic Academy in Kyiv under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, successfully raised over 1 million hryvnias (approximately $24,000) in donations. 26 embassy representatives participated in the event. The Charity Fair-2024 was held on Saturday, November 30. It was co-organized by the Association Spouses of Ukrainian Diplomats Association and the International Women's Club of Kyiv (IWCK), together with Ukrainian artisans, artists, and partners, with the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the General Directorate for Servicing Foreign Missions.

Earlier, the 26th Annual Charity Christmas Bazaar, organized by the International Women's Club of Riga, was held in the Latvian capital, Riga. The event brought together residents, city guests, and representatives of foreign embassies, united by a common goal—supporting charitable initiatives.

It was also announced that leading up to the Christmas and New Year festivities, the Ukrainian brand "Yavereta" launched a charitable collection of patches and socks titled "Holidays in Antarctica." This collaboration between the brand and the National Antarctic Science Center of Ukraine aims to raise funds to support Ukrainian soldiers serving in Ukraine's armed forces. 30% of the proceeds from selling these products will aid polar explorers in defending their country.
