Helping the people of Kherson

We’re an official non-profit based in Ukraine, supporting most vulnerable groups of civillians in Kherson oblast since 2022

We founded this NGO when invading russian forces came to our home of Nova Kakhovka. While this part of the region is still occupied — we’re continuing to work for and with the people of Kherson, through occupation, liberation, daily ongoing attacks and (hopefully near future) rebuilding!

A tight-knit network of volunteers, locals that deeply care about their homeland and do all the work pro-bono — is what defines our uniqueness

With multiple NGO and corporate partnerships worldwide, transparent reporting and on the ground impact — we’re are your trusted partner and friend in Kherson

Updates on our work

We bring most critical supplies directly to hands of these who need it most

Our team on the ground regularly analyzes the humanitarian situation. This allows us to have a clear focus on what is most vital and will bring maximum value

Support our ongoing missions in Kherson!

Share the Light: antiblack out kits for families

One kit = $13

800 kits distributed

Goal: $20 000

As russians continue to destroy critical infrastructure, most of Kherson’s oblast homes have little to no electricity, at times for weeks. The kit includes solar panel, powerbank and a light

Share the Care: first aid kits for civillians

A first aid box = $11

380 kits distributed

Goal: $15 000

On average, every day over 5 civillians are injured or killed in Kherson. Our aim is for every family to have a first aid kit ready to go, if their loved ones need aid, until medics arrive 

Emergency fund:
for families who've lost homes

Grants of $50-100

Over 200 grants awarded

Goal: $60 000

Destruction and shelling of a home leave families without pretty much anything. This one-time grant allows them to purchase food and priority supplies to get through

Our principles focus on providing most vital aid directly to the people

We channel international aid to Kherson region and ensure that 100% of the donations end up making impact on the ground. As we’re a small and local NGO — we strive to keep every donor updated on how their money supported the locals — see regular updates on our Facebook page here or reach out directly
