15 young people joined us for the match with Ural thanks to the Naked Heart Foundation's Assisted Employment Project. We were able to provide work experience across the Gazprom Arena, from the press centre, pitchside with the medical team and assisting our fans service team all around the stadium. The aim of the internships is to help those with disabilities gain work experience and eventually find permanent employment.
The Gazprom Arena also hosted an exhibition of the Participation Experience photo project, highliting examples of people with Down Syndrome and Autism in the workplace and beyond.
Zenit will continue to support the project with both work opportunities and through charitable donations, and we're delighted to report that in the very near future we will advertise job opportnities for our disabled fans on our new vacancies website.
