Sadly, the continuing turmoil in Eastern Ukraine has affected not only the adults but also the children. The safety and protection of the latter remains a pressing problem.
In partnership with the NGO Save Ukraine, we have managed to inform the public about the possibility to evacuate children from the combat zone and temporarily place them at the "Our Kids" Centre. Following requests from the parents, 17 kids were admitted to the Centre on 12 December, 2014.
Currently, the kids are staying at the Centre in family groups. The Centre provides everything needed for safe and comfortable living and development.
Thanks to the project implemented by the All-Ukrainian Charity Child Well-Being Fund, we have been able to generate enough charity donations to buy underwear and everyday clothing for the children.
We express our sincerest gratitude to the Fund for providing their assistance and support to our children and hope for further co-operation in the future.
