Completed projects

Projects that have been successfully implemented by the foundation with your help!
Each one represents a completed fundraising campaign, fulfilled commitments and aid delivered to military units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. We focus not on intentions, but on results: vehicles, transport and equipment that are already in use on the front line and saving lives.

Transparency, accountability and seeing every project through to completion form the foundation of our work.

Areas of support

Protection of children and
human rights

We work with children and vulnerable groups: providing humanitarian aid, psychological support and protection of fundamental rights. We help those who have been most affected by the war and are unable to cope on their own.

Community recovery

We are helping communities affected by the war by rebuilding homes and infrastructure. We support local initiatives so that people can get back to normal life as soon as possible.

Military aid (closed category)

Following a shift in the foundation’s priorities, as announced at the public meeting, the military programme was closed.
