Here, you can explore the projects we are working on right now, where your support can make a tremendous impact today.
Wise Carpenter: A Program for Boys Who Lost Their Fathers to War
Area: Odesa Region
Status: On-going
Budget: $3,840
Our Wise Carpenter program empowers Ukrainian boys aged 7 to 14—many of whom are without their fathers due to the ongoing war—by teaching practical skills within a value-based framework, fostering responsibility and integrity. The consistent and personalized guidance provided in weekly sessions over the course of two years, as well as a yearly camp gathering, prepare them to face life’s challenges with confidence and resilience.
Your generous support is the key to transforming their lives.
Resilience Point in Kryvyi Rih
Area: Kryvyi Rih
Status: On-going
Budget: $2,500
Impact: 180 people every day
Russia has been trying to leave Ukrainians without electricity for the past two years by shelling energy infrastructure. From time to time, scheduled blackouts occur across the country, when electricity is available for only 4-10 hours a day. In Kryvyi Rih, there is a Resilience Center where you can charge your gadgets, take a warm shower or wash your clothes at any time of the day. Free hot lunches are also served there every day. The project provides support to people who have faced difficulties and are unable to meet their own needs as a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Through collaboration with Ukrainian and international experts, our training platform aims to enhance the skills and qualifications of our team, ensuring high-quality support for those affected by the war. This project leverages the full spectrum of energy-information practices, underscoring its unique and essential role in the national rehabilitation system.

Daily Center for Internally Displaced Children

In war zones, the Daily Centre serves as a lifeline for families, offering children a safe space for learning amidst the threat of missile strikes. Your support enables us to provide education and holistic care, allowing children to thrive despite the challenges of war. With traditional schooling impractical due to constant missile threats, children now navigate their education online while parents work amid safety concerns. Our partners have established daytime centers in bomb shelters, serving as vital support systems for children and families. Here, children receive holistic care that addresses their physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual needs.
