00:00Beauty is a choice is a very deep words for me.
00:04I can share with you my experience during the years.
00:08I came to Portugal as a refugee and now I'm a resident.
00:12I was work all this year and only focusing good things in beauty.
00:17I supported my family.
00:19I wanted to put all my energy and use all the talent what God gave to me
00:25with love and responsibility.
00:28I'm really sure that beauty is a choice.
00:32It doesn't matter what's happening in our life.
00:35It's not easy sometimes.
00:37My family is still there in Ukraine.
00:40Every day I live in a war with them.
00:44But I'm really sure we can change this world.
00:49We can make it better.
00:50We can create good things.
00:53And I'm very happy and grateful for everyone who helped me to share this mission.
00:58Today, the foundation is already active and we sell stars and postcards.
01:04Postcards produced in Ukraine to support local companies and the economy.
01:09The stars I produce by myself.
01:11It's a very symbolic scene for me.
01:15I'm very happy to share the news that together with all the sailings, together with my personal donation,
01:22we have already guaranteed and secured classes for children once per week until the end of the year.
01:28Now we're focusing on growth sailings, in growth foundation and to find, to reconstruct the shelter for kids.
01:37And inside this shelter, it will be lots of good initiatives and different projects what foundation will support.
01:45I would like to talk about how Veronika Blisnichenko Foundation has appeared and the history behind.
01:53When I was able to reopen a historic monument in Lisbon, Basilika da Estrela,
01:58I felt such a big power and I felt that everything is possible after this big project.
02:05And I decided to open my foundation in Ukraine, to rebuild not just buildings, but to rebuild the lives of
02:12the people who really need the support there in Ukraine.
02:16If we speak about the future of foundation, foundation has a very beautiful goal in future, to build a museum
02:24dedicated to the beauty.
02:26When I think about the future, I really, I really imagine this, one day the world will finish and the
02:36beautiful things can grow better and better and more with another strongness.
02:43And people who was since the beginning with and pass all this way with me, with us, with foundation,
02:51for sure we'll see how this beautiful and big flower grow.
