A message of solidarity and love was sent on Thursday 15/2 by young and old at the awareness event for World Childhood Cancer Day organized in Sotira.
The event took place at the social benefits center of the Municipality from 14:00 to 19:00 in the afternoon and was an initiative of the Sotiras Youth Center.
Young and old had the opportunity to comb, cut their hair and donate it to the young children suffering from cancer. Among those who had their hair done were Mayor Sotiras Giorgos Takkas and Deputy Mayor Antonis Koumis.
