Women can live with each other as one. It’s just that I haven’t experienced it before. I didn’t grow up surrounded by women, and I’m very hungry for it. I believe that many of us feel this way. In the past, women were intertwined in everyday rituals like a braid, they baked bread together, they did embroidery together, they weaved wreaths together. It was always in us, it’s just that we simply forgot about it. This proves that we are connected by a magic thread. We should enjoy it.

The Polish-Ukrainian Sisterhood, which includes, among others: Henryka Bochniarz, Iryna Deszczyca, Ewa Ewart, Agnieszka Holland, Dominika Kulczyk, Olga Tokarczuk and Oksana Zabużko, selected the winning projects under the "Hi Girls!" Grant Program. Almost a million PLN will be allocated to 11 organizations to help women and children from Ukraine. The Sisterhood also announces the launch of the next edition of the Program.
