Hello. My name is Vanya. My dad died 3 years ago, so I am the only man in the family and I try to take care of my family. I am 13 years old. I was born and raised in small town in the south of Ukraine where there is war now.  I went to my favorite school there. We had a sports complex in the city, where I went to play football. We lost it all. Football is my life, my hobby. But the war took everything from me: home, school, football… Now my house, school, and sports complex are destroyed… When the war started, mother and grandmother and I had to evacuate. Here, in our evacuation town I went to school, but unfortunately, due to constant air raid alerts and danger, we study online. It’s hard because I don’t have a computer. I have an old and not powerful phone, it’s almost impossible to study through this old phone. I also dream of a football team and uniform and a good ball, because the war did not kill my love for football! I still try to keep myself in shape and train myself when there is no air raid alert.  I will be very grateful to you for your help, because now is such a difficult time for us and your help and support will be very important. Thank you.
