Celebration of Independence Day at a women's colony

On the 24th of August, on Independence Day, the 'Chernihiv Women's Human Rights Centre' charitable organisation joined the administration of the Chernihiv Correctional Colony No. 44 to organise and hold a summer sports tournament for the women serving sentences there.
The women prepared for the summer sports tournament for an entire month—training and preparing sports uniforms and amateur artistic performances.
Winners of the sports competitions were presented with gifts from the colony administration and the charitable organisation. Prizes to honour the winners were provided by People's Deputy of Ukraine H. V. Mankovskyi.
Children being raised in the Children's Home were not overlooked either. Private entrepreneur Oleksandr Mykolaiovych Nehay donated sweets, toys, and cleaning supplies.
The celebration concluded with a concert by the 'Chervona Kalyna' group (led by Vasyl Herasymovych Illienko), the performance of which was organised by members of the 'Chernihiv Women's Human Rights Centre' charitable organisation.
