Guilherme's happiness!

The Social Services of the GNR, in collaboration with the National Guard of Ukraine, have integrated a group of 20 Ukrainian children aged between 6 and 14 who have suffered irreparable losses since the beginning of the war into their holiday camps, with the aim of removing them from their current living environment. As a partner, the Benfica Foundation organized visits to the Estádio da Luz and the Benfica Museum – Cosme Damião with a Ukrainian guide, in order to broaden the range of activities planned for these young people. The initiative was attended by Domingos Almeida Lima, vice president of Benfica and the Foundation – who highlighted the “concern to always be close to young people” – as well as Arménio Pedroso, vice president of Social Services at GNR, and Liudmyla Kulius, former secretary of the Ukrainian GNR.
