Putin's Foundation allocates grants to teach children to pray and search for mines instead of holidays.

The Presidential Grants Fund has determined the winners of the second competition among projects for the organization of children's recreation. Most of the approved applications involve spending holidays in military-patriotic camps, where children will be taught to pray and handle weapons.

The project "Russian Spirit" intends to fight "gadget addiction" among the younger generation from St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region. In the "patriotic Orthodox camp" run by priests and war participants in the Pskov region, children will be protected from the "blurring of the boundaries of gender roles," taught prayers and "traditional values," while "defending their native land and the ideals of their native culture" during military training.

Another project involves sending children to the occupied part of the Luhansk region of Ukraine. Apparently, the organizers will offer to try out the acquired skills immediately in practice: "Land in the Luhansk region is literally strewn with the consequences of hostilities," the description of the project says.

Also, children will be sent to the occupied Crimea, which is now regularly shelled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Students are promised a meeting with "polite people" and celebrations on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the annexation of the peninsula. In addition, pro-Kremlin ideologists and Z-propagandists will explain to them how not to become "victims of the information war."

In February, Deputy Prime Minister of the ruZZian Fuckeration Tatyana Golikova said that the system of patriotic education in ruZZia by the end of 2024 will cover about 72% of children and kids aged 5 to 19 years.
