Hello! My name is Maria. I am 10 years old. I live in the city of Zaporizhzhia, the city of the famous Cossacks. Now, my city is home to free, strong, and unbreakable people. I have different hobbies and interests. I enjoy playing various games outside with my friends. I like riding a bicycle and I am fascinated by speed. I love drawing and I am learning English. I also attend shooting practice, where I learn to shoot accurately and control my emotions.
I dream about many things. My biggest dream is victory and peace in my country. I dream of traveling all over the world and discovering how different nations live. I also love swimming, so one of my dreams is to go to the sea. I really hope that all my dreams will come true!

Varvara, 12 y.o.
Hello, Santa! This is Varvara Kravchenko writing to you. I am 8 years old. Because of the war, my family and I had to leave our home with only one backpack of things. My native home, the city of Tokmak, is occupied by Russian soldiers with weapons. Now I live in the city of Zaporizhzhia.
I study in the 3rd grade and I ask you to gift me school supplies: notebooks, pens, a drawing album, colored pencils, wax clay, and paints for drawing. I also love doing crafts with creativity sets, weaving with rubber bands, and beading. My biggest dream is to get professional roller skates — my shoe size is 32. Like all girls, I also love playing with dolls and I dream of having a Barbie family set with clothes.
Thank you for receiving my letter.

Hello, Santa! This is Sofiia Alekseienkova writing to you. I am 14 years old. Because of the war, my family and I had to leave our home — my native city, Tokmak, which has been occupied since February 26, 2022. Due to the fighting and occupation, we had to move to the city of Zaporizhzhia. All of my personal belongings were left at home, so I kindly ask you to gift me some important and necessary things — a hair dryer, a hair straightener, sports clothes (size M), T-shirts, school supplies, art materials, and body care cosmetics. Thank you!

Timofey , 10 y.o.
Hello, Santa! My name is Tymofii, I am 10 years old. Earlier, my family and I lived in a small town in Zaporizhzhia region called Polohy. But we were forced to leave because our town was occupied. Now I live in the frontline city of Zaporizhzhia together with my mom, dad, older sister, and our dog. I try to be obedient and honest, and I help my parents with household chores. I really love reading adventure books and playing football.
I know that you come to good children, and I believe that this year I have been worthy of your gift. Back in the occupation, I had to leave behind the brand-new bicycle my parents had given me, which I loved riding through the streets of our town. My deepest wish is peace in Ukraine, so that all the soldiers can return to their families. And for myself, I would love to have a bicycle again. It doesn’t need to be very expensive — the main thing is that it is strong, reliable, and has good wheels. I could ride it to school, explore new places in the park, and even go fishing with my grandfather.
If you decide that I deserve this gift, I will be very happy! Thank you for everything you do for us children.
With respect, Tymofii.
