Moscow, Russia - As part of a beauty contest of character and lifestyle, "Mr. and Miss University Pageant," a volunteer project was held at boarding school № 105 on January 24. Before that, the contestants met at a December Internet roundtable conference where they discussed the image of a true volunteer. This time the participants demonstrated their qualities of true volunteers by staging a Christmas story, "The Stolen New Year," for the children. The participants made wonderful preparationsl; they made ​​colorful costumes, and played their roles very well, resulting in a very bright and interesting performance. The children clapped loudly in anticipation and peeped through the opening in the curtain to see in advance which heroes came to visit them.

During the performance, the children in the audience answered questions loudly and in unison, laughing and rejoicing with excitement. Finally, Father Frost handed to each child some sweet gifts, wished them all success in the New Year, and promised to come back to their next New Year celebration. The amateur actors, full of enthusiasm, continued creating and carrying out vibrant projects, proving once again that if you give to others a little bit of joy and warmth, it will definitely come back to you!
