Power and Water Restoration for Tsyrkuny
Area: Kharkiv Region
Status: On-going
Budget: $5,000
Impact: 500 people
Members of the Tsyrkuny gardening association “New Garden” turn to us for help. A 63 kW transformer was damaged beyond repair by a missile strike. This transformer is crucial, not only for providing electricity but also for supplying water, as all water in the area comes from wells that require electricity. The transformer supports 143 families, 80% of whom are pensioners.
During the two years of the war, we managed to restore the electrical grid on our own, but purchasing a new transformer costs $2,500, with an additional $2,500 needed for transportation, connection, and disconnection of the power supply.
Urgent Needs:
Supporting Displaced and Special Needs Children
Budget: $1,500
Impact: 200 people
In Krasnokutsk, Kharkiv region, we are supporting 164 internally displaced children, 73 of whom have developmental differences. These children, many of whom fled the war, now live with 22 foster families who provide basic needs like food and shelter. However, the emotional scars from their experiences require deeper healing.
Our project focuses on bringing joy and emotional support to these children.
Upcoming Projects:
Psychological Support for Victims of Russian Aggression in Ukraine
Budget: $18,900
Impact: 200 people
The program aims to establish a rehabilitation center offering social-psychological recovery, rehabilitation, and psychological counseling and therapy.
We emphasize a combination of evidence-based and creative, humane approaches to care, ensuring personalized support in line with the “peer-to-peer” model. =
