For once no war support, but a real cause.
Chelyabinsk schoolchildren refused caviar, sushi and pizza at graduation, donating money to feed homeless animals

11th grade students decided that they would not celebrate their last day of school in a grand manner, but instead would help cats and dogs from an animal shelter. The kids refused expensive menu items in favor of buying animal food.

As Maxim, one of the graduates, told state-controlled media, the class liked this idea, and all 29 students unanimously approved it. Some parents were initially against it, but at the general meeting they still agreed to do as their children wished. As a result, they managed to save 1,000–1,500 rubles per student and buy more than 50 boxes of food (about 1,200 bags in total).

The graduates visited five shelters, one of which was home to just over two hundred cats. The volunteers appreciated the schoolchildren’s good deed and were happy with the children’s decision.
