«Civic position is not a static pose, it implies action and an active attitude toward life. My participation in the Lyceum’s charity action aimed to provide support to the Elista Home for Senior Citizens had a lasting and profound impression on me. Never before have I been so acutely aware of someone close by needing badly my assistance. It is important to understand that everyone can make the world around us a better place to live.”
