We apply our business expertise to efficiently allocate financial and humanitarian aid across key volunteer groups helping war victims in Kharkiv
Kharkiv, a front-line city in Eastern Ukraine that had over 1,5 million inhabitants before the war and is now undergoing daily attacks is on the brink of a humanitarian crisis. Russian indiscriminate shelling of residential areas and air raids left thousands of people without homes, food, medicine, and basic supplies.

Facing the worst humanitarian crisis since the World War II
About 6,151 civilian buildings have been ruined so far, including more than 4,000 houses, 110 schools, 104 kindergartens, and 53 hospitals — the destruction unseen since The World War II
Up to 900,000 people remain in the city. Thousands are either hiding in bomb shelters or unable to leave their homes. Women, children, and the elderly need humanitarian help and medical care to sustain life
Dozens of volunteer and charity organizations took the responsibility of sourcing and delivering humanitarian help to the most vulnerable groups of people in Kharkiv
Today, those who remain in the city face lack of urgent medical care, food supplies and basic essentials. Many people have lost their homes, jobs and are doing their best to survive in shelters and dormitories
We are the leading civil organization in Kharkiv that unites 30+ volunteer groups and allocates humanitarian aid to as many people as possible:
+ Volunteer groups that distribute large-scale deliveries
+ People living in shelters
+ Essential workers with overnight duty
+ Elderly unable to leave their homes
+ Patients who require special medicine and treatment
+ Hospitals, maternity homes, orphanages, and hospices
We also facilitate and participate in evacuations of civilians from Kharkiv and the region, including elderly and persons with reduced mobility.
