Promoting the interests of Ukraine in the world — work on informing foreign governments, businesses, NGOs about the situation in Ukraine. Lobbying the interests of Ukraine in other countries, working to increase the country’s support budgets and the volume of humanitarian aid.

Organization of assistance to people in the occupied territories — unfortunately, the delivery of assistance and evacuation from the territories occupied by the Russian Federation is difficult. But we have access to the possibility of targeted assistance (financial) to people who are there, who have become victims of army violence. We hope that soon we will be able to evacuate people and expand assistance programs in these areas.

Message from the project initiator:

Good afternoon. My name is Kateryna Odarchenko, I am from Kherson (now the territory occupied by waxes of the Russian Federation), recently I worked both in Kherson and in the capital of Ukraine Kyiv. I headed a consulting company, I am actively engaged in the promised activities, I was a very recognizable chalked face in the vector of democracy development and reforms. The war changed the lives of all of us. I, with small children, was also forced to leave the house due to direct threats to life. My father’s family was also persecuted because of his active work against the influence of Russia in the young region of the country (he was even included in the list of Sanctions of the Duma of the Russian Federation, and his associates were stolen and beaten). I know all the details of the military blunting of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, they should be orders at the very least punishment. Because of the Kremlin’s policies, Millions of women, children and the elderly were left without a future and a shelter for their heads, Tens of thousands of military and civilians died, tens of thousands of civilians were brutally killed, hundreds were subjected to extreme forms of violence (rape, bullying), or simply imprisoned in basements. And this situation does not stop. Hunger in the occupied territories has also become the norm. And this is all happening in the 21st century in valuable Europe. We must help. We must act both in the vector of promoting the interests of Ukraine and increasing diplomatic support, as well as on the humanitarian front. We must save as many lives as possible. We must do it now.
