Victoria = Victory.

And we are very happy that there is such a person in Rotary Club Kharkiv "New Level" - brave, creative, pure Victoria Pogodaeva.

We want to talk about this woman separately, because we are proud of how, with her will clenched into a fist, she DID NOT ALLOW the war to turn her LIFE into a DEFEAT.

On February 24, she packed her suitcase, son, and daughter and left for Belgium. It was not an excursion, a journey or a vacation. She had to leave her soul to her husband in Kharkiv, for the sake of SAVING HIS HEART AND HER HEART - Oleksandr Volodymyrovych and Anna Volodymyrivna.

How fortunate that against the background of February cold, gloom, and threats, the Pogodaevy family found a lever that launched a series of their own victories to bring one closer for everyone. A husband Volodymyr Pogodaev has dozens of charitable works at the Kharkiv in HUB, and Victoria has a hobby in Europe, or in other words, a business for the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

"When various patriotic T-shirts began to be produced in Ukraine, I really wanted one. But in Brussels, where I was at the time, such T-shirts cost too much for me. Then I said: "I will try to embroider myself." And I was so excited that I embroidered two more. Because embroidery is what I love to do in my free time," says Victoria.

Now she is in Lithuania. The children are at school, and Vika embroiders patriotic patterns on T-shirts, sells clothes and actively donates to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And the entire Kharkiv Rotary family is proud of this woman!

Everyone has their own front. There are no right or wrong decisions. We all fight as we feel, as we can!
