Tomsk: Over 30K "Child Soldiers" Live Here; Here's How to Apply for Support

Hey there! Let's dive into the latestnews from Tomsk. It turns out that more than 30 thousand "child soldiers" reside in the region, with a whopping 20 thousand already receiving one-time financial support. But what about the rest? Fear not, for SvetlanaGruznych,Deputy Governor of Tomsk, has got you covered!

During a recent press conference, she revealed that residents who fall under this category can still apply for assistance. Here's a lowdown on what you need to know.

First off, it's essential to understand that in Tomsk, those under 18 years old on September 3, 1945, are considered "Child Soldiers." The regional one-time financial assistance is a cool 2 thousand rubles.

Now, the payment doesn't depend on income or other forms of support. However, those who are already receiving aid, totaling over 20 thousand individuals, have already received their payments. Yet, it seems the actual number of "Child Soldiers" in Tomsk exceeds 30 thousand, according to data. So, if you haven't received any aid but are eligible, it's time to act!

Simply head to any center for social support and submit your application. You can even do this after May 9th, reassured Svetlana.

Additionally, Tomsk has set aside an impressive 131 million rubles to celebrate Victory Day this year. Of course, a considerable chunk of this will go towards supporting "Child Soldiers," heroes of the Tyl, war veterans, and disabled war participants.

Last year, the allocation for Victory Day celebrations was 26 million rubles. The funds were used for improving veterans' living conditions, memorial maintenance, patriotic events, and the grand parade. This year, however, the budget has been boosted to 131 million rubles, with a good portion earmarked for those who bravely fought for our freedom.

Still, if you need more detailed instructions on how to apply for financial support, I'd recommend reaching out to local government offices or veterans' organizations, checking official portals for related announcements, or scouting out local media outlets that might have covered this topic. Happy hunting!
