COMMUNITY AND WAR
The Hirska Community was not in the zone of active hostilities, but the military unit was destroyed and the airport damaged by rocket attacks on the territory of the Community. From the first day, the administration and residents of the Community do not stand aside, but make every effort to help the Armed Forces of Ukraine. A school bus, two trucks were transferred from the property of the Hirska Community for the needs of the army, and 20 cars and various equipment were already purchased and handed over to the armed forces with the funds regularly collected by the residents of the Community.
In order to systematize and increase the effectiveness of the initiatives of the residents of the Hirska Community and local self-government bodies, aimed at supporting the Defense Forces of Ukraine and the development of public space in the conditions of war, a public organization was created.
