Irafsky District

Welcome to the Irafsky District of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania. Located in the southwestern part of the republic, most of the district is mountainous. It borders Georgia, the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, and the Digorsky and Alagirsky districts. The administrative center is the village of Chikola. The population is over 15,000 people, mainly Ossetians and Russians. The Ossetians of the district speak the Digor dialect of the Ossetian language. The economy of the Irafsky District is based on agriculture—there are five collective farms and four state farms here. The district also has a consumer services complex, housing and utilities enterprises, and the Fasnalskaya Hydroelectric Power Plant. Tourism is well developed. The district is rich in historical, cultural, and natural monuments. The Alania National Park is located in the district, where there are many mountaineering, tourist, and ecological trails.

The third annual Lavender Charity Fair, “I Am and I Will Be!”, was held in Vladikavkaz, contributing to the goals and objectives of the national project “Youth and Children.”

This event, organized with the support of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania and the Be Kind Foundation, brings together everyone who is ready to give hope and help to cancer patients in our republic.

The Irafsky District has actively joined in this important work. Education advisors, together with schoolchildren, have created a whole gallery of handmade warmth for the fair: fragrant sachets, cozy knitted items, homemade baked goods, and candles.

Each item sold is a real contribution to the costly treatment of cancer patients in the republic. In this way, education, volunteering, and helping others, which are embedded in the ideology of the national project, have been translated into concrete good deeds.
