Shakhtar Social and DTEK opened a new location of the Come On, Let's Play! project in Bilohorodka, Kyiv Oblast

Legendary Shakhtar player Andrii Vorobei, DTEK managers and representatives of the local government attended the ceremonial training session dedicated to the opening of the new Come On, Let’s Play! pitch in Bilohorodka. The guests congratulated children on the launch of the project in Bilohorodka and wished them to enjoy playing football and achieve success.

Inna Khmyzova, Director of Shakhtar Social CO:

– Come On, Let's Play! is a unique social project. And I am not exaggerating when I say that. Firstly, this is the largest social football project in Ukraine – more than 1,500 children currently train here. Secondly, it is more than sports. We always try to create additional opportunities for children who train here: we have family days, organise meetings with players and legends of Shakhtar, trips to matches and summer camps so that the children benefit as much as possible from participating in the project. And the main thing is fun, joy and support. We, in turn, are grateful to the partners from DTEK for many years of support.

Shakhtar Social and DTEK prepared branded gifts for the children and also took memorable photos. After that, Andrii Vorobei participated in a football match together with the children.

Vitalii Shaida, DTEK Kyiv Regional Grids CEO:

– The Come On, Let's Play! social initiative is another way to support the normal life of Ukrainian children. Football is a game that unites Ukraine and the world. We want children in Ukraine to have a place where they can play sports, communicate and actively spend time together.

Come On, Let's Play! is the flagship project of Shakhtar Social, which is implemented with the support of the general partner – DTEK. In general, the project covers 29 Ukrainian cities with 30 operating pitches. More than 1,500 children aged 7 to 12 train within the project.
