Команда фонду
8 years ago, our foundation was established by the volunteer Olena Rozvadovska and the journalist Azad Safarov to help children and families affected by the war.
Since then, our team has expanded from two to nearly two hundred people.
Originating as an initiative in the frontline zone, we have evolved to provide assistance across the entire Ukraine
Speaking about how we have changed during the full-scale war, during which we have provided tens of thousands of children with psychological, humanitarian and rehabilitation assistance. Psychologists work in 13 branches of the foundation – in frontline cities, de-occupied villages and online. The foundation also published a bilingual book of children's quotes, "War in the Voices of Children" which was presented at the European Parliament and the United Nations. This year, at the Oscars, Azad together with a Danish film director, presented the documentary "House of Splinters" about children from Lysychansk, and Olena was included in the BBC “100 Women” 2023 list as a child rights advocate. All this helps to tell more about Ukrainian children abroad.
The Foundation's achievements since the beginning of the full-scale war in numbers:
- 67 thousand children and parents have received various types of assistance from the Foundation (humanitarian, psychological, psychosocial, rehabilitation);
- Over 12 thousand children have received professional psychological and psychosocial support;
- Every month, over 1000 children visit branches of the Foundation;
- Our psychologists from the online support line have conducted 5447 psychological sessions with children and adults;
- 162 professionals work in the foundation's team across the country, including around 100 psychologists and recreation specialists;
- 13 locations in Kyiv, Lviv, Truskavets, Chernivtsi, Ivano-Frankivsk, Kryvyi Rih, Vysokyi, Kharkiv, Ternopil, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, Chernihiv, and Mykolaiv, where our psychologists are always available.
There are no words to describe our gratitude for the support from all over the world. We are supported worldwide by individual donors, businesses, volunteers and simply people who care. You are all helping not just a charitable foundation, but the future of the whole country. You are incredible!
