Coordinated by territorial organizations and councils, the action saw participation from various trade union bodies across diverse industries.
In 2025, the action involved numerous organizations, including the Yakutsk Regional Branch of the All-Russian Trade Union of Education and the Yakutsk City Organization of the Trade Union of Workers of Culture and Art. Together, they contributed over 4 million rubles. Assistance came in various forms, such as school backpacks, stationery sets, certificates, material support, festive events, camp vouchers, and cultural/sports events.
