Tuesday at the Manhattan Civic Hall an unusual presentation will take place. Here we will talk about the complex social transformation ... of Odessa. The founder of the “My City” platform, Artem Borodatyuk, came to New York, because it is here that the large and active Odessa diaspora lives.

If you simplify very much, “My city” is a platform where you plan to implement a number of projects. Ideas are put forward by the citizens of Odessa themselves, they also raise money on the basis of crowdfunding, and they are engaged in incarnation.

“I want to launch in Odessa a large number of social projects - projects that are useful to people. For example, there is an idea of ​​helping homeless animals: so that there are fewer on the street, so that they are not killed, so that they get into families, ”says Artyom Borodatyuk. - And there is, for example, a project on the painting of transformer booths: we invented it in order to improve the mood of residents of Odessa. One has already been painted - it turned out well. ”

As Forum previously wrote, President of the public association of Ukrainians in the USA “Razom for Ukraine” Lyuba Shipovich moved from New York to Odessa to join the team of the head of the Odessa region, Mikhail Saakashvili.
