I am grateful to Rinat Akhmetov for being a real graduate of our university, for not leaving us in trouble and for providing us with such necessary help", – Roman Hryniuk said.

"It proves your concern and care about education, your understanding of the importance of personality formation during student years and generosity of your soul.

The Humanitarian Center provided the university with essential equipment, and it is practically impossible to study at the Faculty of Foreign Languages without it. This is the emergency aid that will help to continue educational process without losses for students", – Irina Temerko, the Head of "Targeted Assistance" Direction of the Humanitarian Center, said.

"We hope that later these students will be able to come back to Donbas, and put their knowledge into restoration of the region", – Irina Temerko emphasized.
