The Nyíregyháza-based Hidden Treasures Down Association won a HUF 1,000,000 grant from the Carpathian Emergency Response Fund for Ukrainians. In the Csodavár Playhouse, they provide free playhouse opportunities in an informal way for children who have fled from Ukraine, but with help, while parents can also relax a bit. Specialists in special education assess the children who reach them and start or continue the development activities that are right for them. Ukrainian interpreters are also involved in the development work if necessary.
