A series of special events dedicated to the thirty-fourth anniversary of Ukraine’s independence took place at the “Beit Baruch” Home for the Elderly, run by the Jewish Community of Dnipro.
One of the most vibrant and inspiring events was a creative workshop conducted by Anzhelika Basha for the residents of “Beit Baruch.” Active participants in the creative programs included: Tetiana Oleksandrivna Niezievych, Alla Yosypivna Zlobina, Tamara Vasyliivna Denysova, Yurii Moiseiovych Fleishman, Yevhen Petrovych Blank, Borys Iakovych Minevych, Liliia Arkadiivna Krychevska, Iryna Mykhailivna Krychevska, Iryna Yukhymivna Berylovа, Ziama Semenovych Stoliarov, and Feliks Leonidovych Korsunskyi.
“We celebrated Ukraine’s Independence Day in a special way—with warmth, smiles, and creativity,” shared Anzhelika Basha, a psychologist at “Beit Baruch.” “The residents enjoyed an engaging workshop where everyone could express their imagination, color vibrant holiday-themed drawings, and feel part of a grand creative process. This gathering was not only a festive event but also a warm reminder that creativity and communication fill life with light.”
“Beit Baruch” places special emphasis on creating an atmosphere of psychological comfort, which is of utmost importance for the elderly. A kind word, sincere support, and opportunities for creative self-expression help residents feel needed and valued, boost their self-confidence, and bring joy to each day. It is these moments that foster a sense of homey coziness, inner peace, and harmony, making the lives of the elderly more fulfilling, meaningful, and happy.
