«Give the children a smile!» is a charity event for an orphanage organized by the Department of Propaedeutics of Childhood Diseases

On February 13, 2026, a charity event was held at the Center for the Support of Children in Need of Social Services No. 2. Teachers of the Department of Propaedeutics of Childhood Diseases and staff of the Dean’s Office of the School of Pediatrics took an active part in its organization.

This event became part of the social volunteering program, which was attended by third-year pediatric students. The teachers of the department gave a lecture on the topic for the teenagers of the center: «The effects of smoking, alcohol, and drugs.» Animators with full-length dolls were invited for the youngest pupils.

Holding such events not only brings joy to children, but also helps students develop a sense of caring, empathy and social responsibility. We thank all the participants for their kindness and concern!
