On December 13, the UOC-MP Department for social and Humanitarian Affairs sent more than 1,000 gifts to 15 boarding schools as part of the "Offer the Feast" campaign dedicated to St. Nicholas Day. About 500 more gifts will be distributed to children from displaced families and large families, as well as taken to boarding schools for children with disabilities in the Luhansk region.

This is reported by the Information and Educational Department of the UOC-MP.

The campaign is held annually with the blessing of Metropolitan Onufriy.

Archpriest Sergiy Ekshiyan, chairman of the Synodal Department for Social and Humanitarian Affairs, thanked all those who are not indifferent and patrons for their participation.

"We were able to buy good candies. We chose it based on children's reviews. Therefore, we are very grateful to everyone for participating in the campaign, and many people responded. We thank philanthropist Andriy Biba. Every person participating in this common cause brings a little warmth and joy to children who are deprived of parental care," said Fr Sergiy.

He said that a total of about 1,000 gifts will be given to 15 boarding schools by local priests who regularly attend these schools.

Andriy Biba, who financed the action of the Moscow Patriarchy, is the owner of the BRSM-NAFTA network.

On November 16, 2021, Biba was added to the database of the Myrotvorets website.

He is charged with “financing anti-Ukrainian political forces, as well as propaganda activities aimed at destabilizing socio-political environment, he is an opponent of the independence of Ukrainian Orthodoxy from the Russian-controlled (aggressor country) Russian Orthodox Church.”
