Within the event, the Gedankendach Centre and NGO “Ukrainian-German Cultural Society of Chernivtsi” provided finances for holiday food hampers for families in need. The initiative was organized by the NGO “Ukrainian-German Cultural Society of Chernivtsi” jointly with Yuriy Fedkovich Chernivtsi National University, sponsored by two German community organisations – Sternstunden e.V. and Lebenshilfe Ostallgäu-Kaufbeuren e.V.
