On the anniversary of the 2020 elections, "Nasha Niva" published a letter from Sergey Tikhanovsky from prison. The blogger, who has become one of the catalysts for the awakening of Belarusians, urges them not to fold their hands and move towards victory.

"A Country to Live in" foundation sets one of its main goals to support the heroes of New Belarus thrown behind bars and their family members. We provide them with material assistance every month, and we also provide political prisoners with programs every week.
