On November 18, 2007, Ilona Galitska, the JESC 2007 participant from Ukraine, took part in the charity campaign �International Day of Help for Children�, which was held in cooperation with International Charity Fund �Ukraine 3000�. The aim of the event is to gather some finances for acquisition of modern first aid medical facilities in children�s hospitals all over Ukraine. The campaign in Kyiv received support from the celebrities of the city: singers, presenters, sportsmen, businessmen, politicians. Ilona Galitska and Nazar Slyusarchuk, the winners of the JESC National Selections, became important guests of the event. The children came to encourage their coevals, who need medical aid. Such contribution of the JESC representatives to the charity campaign conforms fully to the claimed position of the participants of National Selections of the contest. In September young participants of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2007 charged Ilona Galitska with a task of encouraging the world society to carry out a series of charity campaigns for the unfortunate children of Ukraine and the world. The little singer copes perfectly with the task and demonstrates adults that humaneness and sympathy may work wonders and rescue human lives all over the world. Ilona Galitska says: �I try to take part in any event that serves to the purpose of aid for the unfortunate. It is essential that each of us does good things from the bottom of our hearts because there are so many evil and injustice which injures little children after all.� Ukraine page Junior Eurovision 2007 will be closely connected to another charity fund - UNICEF. There will be video clips where contestants talk about children rights and UNICEF. The shooting of these clips will take place on Monday December 3rd with the lead singers of all countries. The EBU and the participating broadcasters will donate all their income from the show�s televoting to UNICEF.	18 �� 2007 �� 2007 �� "�� -��", �� "�� 3000". �� - �� . �� : ��, ��, �� . �� . �� , �� . �� , �� . � �� . �� , �� . �� : "� �� , �� . �� , �� , �� ". �� 2007 � �� . �� , �� -�� . �� 3�� . �� .

Public broadcaster of Georgia has announced that Nino Epremidze will be announcing results of country televoting live during broadcast of Junior Eurovision 2007 from Rotterdam. She was selected as the winner through a casting competition announced by Georgian Public Broadcasting (GPB) one month ago. A highly selective jury staffed by representatives of GPB, as well as British and US Embassies selected Epremidze out of group of 26 contenders. Children aged between 10-15 years participated in the casting. Knowledge of English Language and sharp appearance were the essential requirements. Earlier it was announced that Belarus votes will be read out by Alexander Rogachevskiy and Portuguese spokesperson will be co-hostess of preselection Debora Amado. ESCKaz can also exclusively inform first that Malta, The Netherlands, Greece and Sweden will use JESC 2006 representatives as their spokepersons: Sophie Debbatista, Kimberly, Chloe Boleti and Molly Sanden. In Belgium and Macedonia spokespersons will be runner-up of Junior Eurosong 2007 national selection singer Bab and Mila Zafirovic. For second year in a row, Ukrainian votes will be announced by young singer Assol. Armenian spokesperson will be Ani Sahakyan. Romanian votes will be announced by 12 years old Iulia Ciobanu. Bulgarian votes will be read out by 8 years old boy, specially selected from 15 competitors. Serbian spokesperson will be Andjelija (Angela) Eric, born in Belgrade. She is 14 years old and she now finishes last 8th class of her primary school. Also, she is a very good singer and she won several youth musical contests in Serbia.

Other commentators are: Marcel Kuijer (The Netherlands), Kyriakos Pastides (Cyprus), Isabel Angelino (Portugal), Valerie Vella (Malta), Gohar Gasparyan & Felix Khachatryan (Armenia), As usually Bulgaria, Romania and Macedonia will not have commentators located in Rotterdam, their commentary will be done from local studios. From Skopje commentary will be provided by Zivkica Gjurchinova. Romanian commentators will be Ioana Isopescu and Alexandru Nagy - the traditional team that has commented the JESC show, each year, from the very first edition - it is interesting that while commenting the first JESC edition in 2003, Ioana was pregnant in almost 9 months and gave birth immediately after the show.

Official website of the contest has made available preview videos of all participants of Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2007, which can be watched via this link. Strangely enough, Belarus video provided by official site is nothing but footage of Belarus-TV that was earlier recorded by ESCKaz. As presently official site still misses biographies of some performers, Belarus included, it is possible that official video will be reuploaded later. Macedonian video is presented in lower quality than those provided at official MRT website. Lithuanian one is national performance video also in lower quality - these three videos are exactly same quality as available on Youtube and are not presented in wide screen format as other videos. New videos: Cypriot video is mix between live performance at the national final (overdubbed by studio version) and extra footage from the same selection. Serbian video is mix of studio performance, national final one and winners reprise. Ukrainian video is studio one, very similar to national selection one but with new costumes, dubbed with studio version of the song. Georgian video is mix of selection backstage and extra footage with very few actual performance shots included, dubbed by new version of the song - same one that was recently made available by GPB. Belgian and Dutch videos on junioreurovision.tv are not the official videoclips, presented by EEN and AVRO earlier, but live performances from national selections. Armenian video is also old one - studio recording - the new video clip has already been presented by ArmTV. Bulgaria was the last country to present it's preview video while official site instead of this has studio dubbed national final performance. This four new missing video clips (Netherlands, Belgium, Armenia, Bulgaria) you can watch here. Maltese, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian and Swedish videos are national final performancec. Greek video is studio version dubbed national performance as well. Attention: since the end of November videos are also availble to watch at Belgian website.Starting from 4th of December JuniorEurovision.tv as usually will launch JESC-TV, online channel devoted to Eurovision Week in Rotterdam, which will also be covered in full details on ESCKaz.

Boys were selected through special castings run by choreographer Alexandr Mezhenniy. - We needed charisma in the team, tells Alexandr, - it is not interesting to watch all similar kids.

Sergey Borisevich is the oldest one, he unities different qualities and technic capabilities, he also has very interesting and uncommon face.
