A goal for good: Nataliia Solonik and FC Dynamo invite to a charity football match for children of Heroes

On 16 May, at the initiative of Natalia Solonik, host of TET TV channel's Closer to the Stars and ambassador of the Zdiysny Mriyu project from 1+1 media, a charity football match Goal for Good will take place in Kyiv, where the children of the heroes will play alongside players from Dynamo FC and Ukrainian artists.

The wards of the Children of Heroes charity foundation will take to the pitch together with Dynamo's star players and Ukrainian artists, including Brykulets, Muayad, Enleo, Vadym Oliynyk, Blockbaby and star dancer Max Leonov.

Before the start of the official game, the anthem will be performed by Artem Kotenko, Ukraine's representative at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2024.    

‘I am a mother of three children and I know very well how important support is for every child. Everyone in my family loves sports, and when I found out that there are real football players among the wards of the Children of Heroes Foundation, who are taken care of by the Zdiysny Mriyu project, the idea of a charity match became even closer to my heart. I am pleased to be able to give children a little happiness, attention and support that they need so much. On 16 May, we are waiting for everyone on the football field to make this day a real holiday for children,’ comments Nataliia Solonik, the initiator of the event. 

The Goal for Good charity match aims to give a day of joy and support to children who have lost one or both parents to war. The event will also be an opportunity for children to get to know their sports and music heroes. 

The event will take place at 14:00 at the SkyArena football field near the Ice Stadium at VDNKh. Admission is free for spectators.
