Children of service members recovering at RECOVERY centers escorted the Ukraine and Northern Ireland national teams onto the field for the match in Trnava 🇺🇦⚽️
15 children of Ukrainian defenders whose parents are undergoing or have undergone rehabilitation at RECOVERY centers walked the players of both national teams onto the field before the match in Trnava. The trip for the children was organized by the RECOVERY project, founded by Victor and Olena Pinchuk to support the Security and Defense Forces of Ukraine, and the Ukrainian Association of Football.
Before the match, the children met the Ukraine national team. Each child received a personalized jersey and a ball signed by Andriy Shevchenko, on which they later collected the players’ autographs.
For many, it was the first opportunity to visit a large stadium and see a Ukraine match live.
RECOVERY is a national network of rehabilitation centers for wounded service members. There are already 20 innovative RECOVERY centers operating in Ukraine, where service members receive rehabilitation care free of charge. More than 57 thousand service members have already undergone recovery at the network’s centers.
