Cherkizovo Group, Russia’s largest meat producer, has staged its traditional charity initiative to celebrate the beginning of the academic year. Ahead of September 1, the Company prepared and distributed 2,500 gift kits containing school supplies to students.

The donations from Cherkizovo reached children of various ages, benefiting not only first-graders but also older students. This year, the initiative spanned 16 regions where Cherkizovo operates: Moscow and the Moscow Region, the Republic of Bashkortostan, Belgorod, Bryansk, Voronezh, Kaliningrad, Kursk, Leningrad, Lipetsk, Orenburg, Penza, Tambov, Tula, Ulyanovsk, and Chelyabinsk regions.

Each gift kit included 27 items, such as pens, pencils, notebooks, rulers, modeling clay, watercolors, and sketchbooks. Some of the kits went to children from low-income and large families, as well as those facing challenging circumstances. Local government officials, school principals, social support centers, and Cherkizovo employees collaborated to distribute the gifts.

For every student, September 1 marks the next step on a vital journey towards knowledge, empowering them to achieve success in their future adult lives. We are delighted to contribute by ensuring these students have all the essential tools for their studies and creative pursuits. We extend our warmest wishes to them on the Knowledge Day and hope the new academic year is filled with engaging lessons, new friendships, inspiration, and wonderful experiences
