In 2024, Helping Ukraine US launched a bomb shelter Ukraine initiative in partnership with the local nonprofit Blaga Nadiya. The goal: to build a secure space at a humanitarian center in Kyiv region, offering protection during air raids.
But before construction was complete, tragedy struck. A Russian missile hit the center, destroying several buildings and a warehouse with construction materials. The damage was severe—but lives were saved.
How the Bomb Shelter in Ukraine Saved Lives
Although unfinished, the shelter had already made a difference. Panels that had been delivered and staged absorbed much of the blast. Positioned between the explosion and the main building, these panels acted as an unplanned barrier—shielding people from deadly shrapnel.
Your donations made that possible.
Rebuilding After the Attack
Despite the destruction, our team in Ukraine is continuing construction. Volunteers salvaged what they could and began rebuilding right away.
This is more than a structure—it’s a symbol of resilience. A reminder that even in the darkest moments, preparation and support can save lives.
