Our mission is to support the younger generation emotionally, socially, and spiritually. We believe that these children, who are experiencing loss and trauma today, will tomorrow become a powerful voice for our country, our nation, and the world—one that strives for peace, stability, and progress.

The festival became a vibrant gathering for over 700 participants, not only Ukrainians but also people from other nationalities, including Americans, Russian-speaking individuals, and Jews. All of them came together to express their gratitude to the United States for supporting Ukrainian refugees, as well as for the extensive work done in the U.S. to help Ukrainians adapt over the past three years. Anastasia Polo and the "Heartbeat" team believe that Thanksgiving in the U.S. is the perfect moment for such an event.
