“Protection
of children is a capacious concept. This concerns the safety, life, and health
of children. This is education, treatment, and, unfortunately, sometimes
rehabilitation”, noted Ilsur Metshin, the Mayor of Kazan. “The city allocates
billions of rubles for these programs, including education, but budgetary funds
are not enough for all needs. Such holidays are an opportunity for enterprises,
public, and charitable organizations to pay special attention to children.
Every year, there are more of such events in Kazan, and they are brighter, more
beautiful”, he added.
