Community, solidarity, empathy, integration, a lot of work, and sometimes sacrifices. That is what Community Center 151 is about, which on June 20 marked its first anniversary – one year since its opening. On this occasion, and also on the occasion of World Refugee Day, our team organized the event “A year with us, a year for you”.
As part of the festival, we organized a fair with sales of handmade products by Ukrainian and local beneficiaries, craft workshops, Moldovan and Ukrainian folk songs and dances.
The evening ended with a community dinner, where, with the involvement of the volunteers, we prepared the most delicious Ukrainian borscht and Moldovan polenta. Community Center 151 was created by PO ‘Laolaltă’ for the initiative ‘Moldova for Peace’, with the support of the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR-Moldova).
