April 13 saw Nizhnekamsk host its second motivational meeting under the auspices of the You Can Do Anything! project implemented as part of SIBUR's Formula for Good Deeds social investment program. The event featuring renowned and successful speakers with disabilities was open to all who wished to get a boost of positive energy and a feel for a truly inclusive atmosphere.

Elena Snezhko, Head of the Formula for Good Deeds social investment program:
"Motivational meetings of the You can do anything! project are always full of vivid emotions as they attract people with unique energy and a good sense of humor with a touch of self-irony. This was the second such event that we have had in Nizhnekamsk, one of the key cities where SIBUR has a presence. We see that there is a strong drive in the city to get people with disabilities integrated into active social life. The event’s sincere and open story of Veronika Lazareva detailing her life journey and her learning to play the keyboard was particularly memorable."

Early on, singer Veronika Lazareva shared with the audience the story of how she had ended up in a children's home with a congenital abnormality of arms and legs, how she then got returned to her family, and proceeded to learn to play the synthesizer and even ventured to skydive from an altitude of 4,000 meters. Veronica displayed her skills of playing her favorite musical instrument and even performed one of her own tracks, “Noticing”. After a break, Alexey Trantsev, Olga Lifanova and Daria Suloyeva, moderators of the City of Opportunities blog, shared their blog’s news and discussed how people with disabilities can make a name for themselves on social media.

Veronika Lazareva, musician, singer, speaker at the motivational meeting:
"This was not my first experience speaking at a motivational meeting, but I just have to note the unique environment of mutual joy and general happiness that had been created for this gathering organized as part of the You can do anything! project. It would be great if my personal story could encourage some of the event’s participants to try new things. Especially if one of the people with disabilities who had come to the meeting today ends up telling themselves that it is no longer tenable to remain locked within the four walls of their homes, that they need to start venturing out of their house to start living an active and interesting life."

The motivational meeting drew more than 150 residents of Nizhnekamsk. The event was fully accessible to people with limited mobility.

Vera Baryshnikova, an activist of the community of cancer patients "We are together - Bez Berge", a participant of the meeting:
"Meetings with people like Mikhail Chetvertakov and Veronika Lazareva give us an incentive to keep on living, to ignore and to overcome pain. When I was getting ready for this event, I read and re-read information about the speakers. But real emotions, the feeling of joy didn’t present themselves until after our personal interactions, and the meeting exceeded all my wildest expectations. Such gatherings are indeed very necessary and important."

In the run-up to the meeting, Mikhail Chetvertakov, a co-organizer of the You can do anything! project, and Veronika Lazareva had visited "Nadezhda", a residential care facility for children with disabilities where they met with the institution’s wards. All participants were offered to try their hand at playing the keyboard and have their pictures taken together with Mikhail and Veronika.

Lyudmila Zaitseva, director of the "Nadezhda" residential care facility for children with disabilities:
"Meetings such as these always bring wards something new, including new knowledge, impressions, and acquaintances. Thanks to the You Can Do Anything! project and the people who visit our establishment, we are able to introduce our children to positive, kind, and dynamic individuals so that they could see examples of other’s success, of what they can do with their own lives, and how they can develop and grow a sense of self-confidence."
