For their work, they have repeatedly received letters of appreciation from Director General of the National Centre RUSSIA Natalia Virtuozova for their active participation in the volunteer programme and contribution to promoting the values of volunteerism.
"Every small gesture of support, every kind word – all of this is part of a greater shared strength that makes the world a better place. I am proud to be part of the volunteer team of the National Centre RUSSIA and I believe that together we can make the world kinder," said Svetlana Ponomareva.
The National Centre RUSSIA also congratulates Irina Ilyina, Svetlana Ponomareva and Lyudmila Tsingova on their well-deserved award and wishes them continued success!
Participants of the first intake of this new educational project, who successfully passed the competitive selection process, shared their stories of discovering the School and their fresh impressions from the classes.
The date was chosen for a reason: it was on 2 March 2018 that the decree establishing the "For Mentorship" award was signed.
