War changes childhood. Children hear explosions, hide in shelters during air raid alerts, and read news that should never be part of a child’s world. These experiences leave deep scars, which is why timely psychological support is so crucial.
Voices of Children, in collaboration with the band Hyphen Dash, is launching a charitable initiative to raise awareness about children affected by the war. Our goal is to raise funds for psychological support for children as part of the release of the band’s new album, titled LATE.

Recently, together with the FUSION JAMS community, we hosted a music lab for teenagers. The children explored rhythm, sound, and voice as ways to express both themselves and their emotions. After the event, the idea emerged to do something bigger. One of the lab’s mentors and a co-founder of FUSION JAMS, Myshko Birchenko, is also the frontman of the Hyphen Dash band. He became the driving force behind this new charitable initiative with our Foundation.
An Album About “Being Late,” Which Turns Out to Be Right on Time
Hyphen Dash recently released their first full-length album. The music matured over six years and, as the musicians themselves say, “arrived as late as it needed to be.” The album includes 14 tracks.
LATE is an album about the feeling of being “late”: late to act, to live fully, to notice what truly matters. At the same time, it serves as a reminder that even being late can still be timely. The child on the album cover symbolizes the potential of the future resting on the remnants of the past. It is precisely for this future that our team works, helping children cope with the consequences of war and grow without the burden of traumatic experiences.

How You Can Help Children
All funds raised through this initiative will be directed toward psychological support programs for children affected by the war. We believe that a happy and prosperous future for postwar Ukraine begins today with its children. Every donation is an investment in a healthy, self-sufficient, and conscious generation that will shape the future of Ukraine.
We thank Hyphen Dash for this important initiative and invite everyone to support the fundraiser and attend the band’s major solo album presentation concert on November 30 at Concert Hall (Kyiv, 41 Kyrylivska Street).
