Aid delivered with the foundation's own funds and team. Source - a Kramatorsk City Council post of 16 May 2025; the annual reports do not describe this distribution separately.
Kramatorsk - the foundation’s home city - remains under attack. Every strike leaves families without housing and basic necessities, and the local team responds immediately.
The foundation provides emergency aid for families whose homes were damaged by strikes on the city. According to a Kramatorsk City Council post of 16 May 2025, over three days of the team’s work in the village of Krasnatorka in the Kramatorsk community, around 120 households received kits with bedding, hygiene supplies and first-aid kits. The foundation’s annual reports do not describe this distribution separately, so these figures are given as the city council’s report, not as a foundation metric.
“We understand that this aid will not replace what was lost to the shelling, nor bring residents peace in their current situation. But we hope it will ease their family budgets a little and let them feel supported - by us, by local government and by international partners.”
