OREANDA-NEWS. March 27, 2012. For about 18 years the V. Spivakov International Charity Foundation has been supporting children gifted in music and fine arts. In our republic the V. Spivakov Foundation has existed for about 6 years, reported the press-centre of AF Bank.

The results of the AF Bank cooperation with the Vladimir Spivakov International Charity Foundation in the Republic of Bashkortostan in 2011 have recently been summed up.

In 2011, in association with AF Bank the Vladimir Spivakov Foundation in the Republic of Bashkortostan got up charity concerts named “Children for Children”. The shows of young hopefuls were held in many cities of the Republic. With a phenomenal success the concerts drew capacity audiences in Ufa, Birsk and Sterlitamak. The winners of republican, national and international competitions and festivals as well as students of music schools and art schools took part in them.

“I’d like to thank so much the Foundation creators, organizers of such events, - says Andrey Komarov, head of the AF Bank advertising service. Familiarizing of the children with the best world music samples, moreover, when performing by kids of the same age is of great importance. You can easily be convinced when you see the glowing eyes of boys and girls who listen to Mozart and Rakhmaninov, Chopin and Glinka. AF Bank intends to go on working with the Foundation in the future. Now we are considering a possibility of giving grants to a number of talented performers”.
