Dasha Bezkostaya

by Sonya from Dnepropetrovsk

This girl lives in the city of Sumy, Ukraine. She is 16 years old but she cannot speak or move as she has got a hard form of cerebral palsy from her childhood. But she can paint using her feet and toes. Trying to overcome her physical pain she has been learning for many years and now she is even taking lessons from an art teacher. She participates in different exhibitions and has already got some success.

But the most important and great thing about her is that she has participated in some charity actions and has donated money for her sold pictures to the treatment of seriously ill children.


Understanding that her illness is incurable, she tries to help those who can be cured. For me she is a real hero.
