"During this month, there is no family in Ukraine left that has not felt the devastating effects of the war. We, the employees of the foundation, also stayed in the basements, left our homes with one backpack, calmed our children while being under shelling. Along with this, we launched new assistance programs, psychological support and tried to reach those who are having the hardest time. Despite the non-stop work, too many children still do not have the basics: food, water, access to medicine and so on. Thanks to everyone who cares and sends help from all over the world ", - Olena Rozvadovska, founder of the Charitable Foundation 'The Voices of Children'.
