Nuclear Kids Project participants consider themselves one big friendly family; they are always ready to help not only each other, but also those children who are in trouble.

The hosts of the workshops have prepared a unique program for each regional site. Children from different regions will have to work in original art painting techniques, and the Easter egg collections they create will reflect the traditional art motifs of the their local areas.
Participating in the charitable project Easter Joy, the children will try to help their peer Veronika Bandenkova, who suffers from cystic fibrosis, a severe hereditary disease. “Veronika looks like an ordinary teenage kid. A little shorter in stature, a little skinnier than her peers. As Veronica says, “Everyone is different and it’s more interesting!” her mother writes.
Based on the results of the art workshops, a charity exhibition and sale of a collection of the Easter eggs will be held at Rosatom State Atomic Energy Corporation on April 22nd. All funds from the sale of the collection will be donated to the Big Heart Fund. They will be used to buy a vibration jacket for Veronika, which costs 490 thousand rubles.
It should be noted that the art workshops will be held in conjunction with regional auditions of Nuclear Kids 2014 summer session. Both past and future participants of Nuclear Kids will be able to take part.
