The tragedy that took place in the Kuban on July 7 did not leave anyone indifferent. Almost all cities in Russia have undertaken to help the victims. Of course, Moscow could not stand aside. Muscovite activists immediately organized themselves to help the Crimeans.
The simplest and at the same time very necessary thing that Muscovites could do for the people affected by the flood was to organize a collection of humanitarian aid around the city. Some of the volunteers arranged reception points for the necessary products, things and funds. Others took it upon themselves to sort them into groups. And still others just brought everything they needed. And this was the main help of Muscovites to the flooded areas. After all, there was nothing left in the affected regions, and they were in dire need of clothing, household chemicals, hygiene items and products that were stored for a long time.
In addition, many Muscovites tried to provide financial assistance to the affected people. Account numbers were posted on all media and on the Internet. People were transferring money en masse. As a result, in just a week, quite an impressive amount was transferred to the accounts of the affected Krymsk and other villages of the Kuban. And this is without taking into account the money sent from other parts of Russia.
A team of volunteers from a Moscow international charitable organization led by Moscow physician Elizaveta Petrovna Glinka, better known as Doctor Liza, also conducted a campaign to collect aid for the affected people. After that, the activists of the organization personally went to escort the cargo to Krymsk and gathered to help already on the spot. After all, those who were hurt by this tragedy need not only food and clothing, but also psychological help. In addition, in the damaged area, the working hands of those people are needed who can help clear the city from the rubble.
Those who could not provide financial or other material assistance, as well as for age or health conditions could not become volunteers, supported the population of the flooded area morally - they wrote letters addressed to the Kuban people, lit candles in churches for the peace of the dead and for the health and well-being of the survivors … In all the churches of the capital, services were being held at that time, to which everyone could join. After all, one of the tasks of volunteer helpers is to make sure that people do not feel abandoned.
