On World Wish Day, we invited the children from our SKOLA+ and SPORT+ projects to share their wishes with us. Their answers were honest, bright, and deeply moving. Some spoke about the future they imagine for themselves: becoming doctors, builders, athletes, or professional volleyball players. These wishes showed their courage, imagination, and desire to keep dreaming despite everything around them.
But again and again, one wish came back: peace.
For many children in Ukraine, peace is not an abstract idea. It means safety, stability, the possibility to learn, play, grow, and simply be children. Hearing this wish from them reminded us why our work matters so much.
Through SKOLA+ and SPORT+, we want to give children moments of confidence, connection, and hope. We want them to feel that their voices are heard and that their dreams are worth protecting.
Every child’s wish deserves attention. Every dream deserves space. And above all, every child deserves a peaceful future. Small video moments from this day were shared on Instagram by our partners at Science4People e.V.: science4people_nonprofit
