The Ball of Angels "In love with life" at NMHM

February 14, 2023

On February 14, 2023, in the Blue Hall of the National Museum of History of Moldova, the first charity ball was held with the participation of over 70 people with special needs from all over the country. The event with the generic name "Ball of Angels" was organized by the "Plaiul Soarelui" Foundation and the NGO "Planeta Carității", in partnership with the Chisinau City Hall.

That event fulfilled the children's dream of being princes and princesses, but also to have the opportunity to enjoy the delightful magic of a festive celebration.

The organizers set out to raise money for a "Conacul Visului" rehabilitation center for people with special needs. Liudmila Şișchina, from the "Floarea Soarelui" foundation, said that the idea appeared three years ago, after which the organizational part was thoroughly discussed. The vice-mayor of the capital, Angela Cutasevici, mentioned that it is a celebration of kindness, happiness and love. She expressed her hope that the event will be memorable and will become a good start for the next editions.

During the event, an "Alphabet of equality" was presented, signed by a mother who educates a child with special needs. The manual comes to increase awareness and acceptance of children with disabilities. In the premises of the National Museum of History of Moldova, which hosted the ball, dances were organized, the people's artist Constantin Moscovici performed, and towards the end of the event the policemen from the bicycle patrol and equestrian patrol services of the INSP organized for the children a artistic moment with their beautiful horses.

The National Museum of History of Moldova is happy to be the host of such a special event and comes with a message to all, to be empathetic and to be active promoters of the social inclusion of people with special needs!
