On June 18, a ceremonial awarding of blood donors with the Mayor's Gratitude Award took place in Chuguiv on the occasion of World Donor Day.
During the event, community residents who have been donating blood and its components free of charge for many years were honored, making a significant contribution to saving human lives and developing the donor movement in Ukraine.
The real pride of the Chuguiv community is Petro Mykolayovych Kyslynsky, who was awarded the honorary title of «Honored Donor of Ukraine» by the Decree of the President of Ukraine. He began his journey as a donor back in 1979 and during this time donated blood 110 times free of charge. Even in the most difficult years of the full-scale war, Petro Mykolayovych continued to help those in need of rescue. His life position is an example of true service to people.
Also deserving of high recognition are our fellow countrymen Yevgeny Igorovich Sokolnikov and Roman Volodymyrovych Istomin, who were awarded the title of "Honorary Donor of Ukraine." They regularly donate blood, understanding that each donation can be decisive for someone's fate.
Behind every drop of donated blood is a human heart, ready to help without expecting gratitude or reward. It is such people who are the true heroes of a peaceful life, an example of mercy, responsibility and love for one's neighbor.
During the award ceremony, Deputy Mayor - Manager of the Executive Committee, Lyudmila Makarenko, thanked the donors for their active civic position, concern, and willingness to help others.
Donation is a special manifestation of humanity. It is an opportunity to give someone hope, a chance for recovery, and sometimes life itself. This contribution is especially valuable today, when our country is going through difficult times, and the need for donated blood remains extremely high.
– I sincerely thank all the donors of the Chuguiv community – veterans and those who are just taking their first steps on this noble path – for their concern, generosity of soul and saved lives. I wish you good health, family warmth, well-being and inexhaustible energy for good deeds. I am proud that such people live in the Chuguiv community! – wrote Galina Minaeva, head of the Chuguiv City Military Administration, in her Telegram channel.
