Founder Tetiana Sokhar

“In dark times, the brightest people are the easiest to see”I often came across this quote on social media, but its full meaning only became clear to me personally at the beginning of 2022.

Hello! Let me introduce myself — I am Tetyana Sokhar, a mother of two, a lawyer by education, and a PR specialist by vocation. At the beginning of the war, I made an important personal decision: to support children’s hospitals. I considered it my civic duty.

In early April 2022, my husband and I delivered the first aid supplies to Okhmatdyt. The stories of wounded children and their shattered lives were deeply moving. The doctors lacked the necessary equipment for effective and timely treatment. I consider myself fortunate to have started working immediately with top-level professionals whose humanity and dedication to their work are truly inspiring.
As we continued our work, hospitals from eastern Ukraine began reaching out to us, as children were being evacuated from the frontline areas. We then expanded our geographic scope and began supporting medical institutions closer to the front lines.

What inspires me?

● Doctors who work around the clock, saving lives and fighting for their patients. Their stories about the children they were able to save because a specific piece of equipment was purchased in time are especially inspiring.
● People who help and donate — that is, YOU.
Your stories, your children who want to support other children, your willingness to get involved — these are what truly inspire me. We start communicating, getting to know one another, and forming a community. People genuinely help and provide immense support. And believe me, the geographical reach is wide!
As a mother, I firmly believe that children should not suffer. They should not have to endure the horrors of war. Unfortunately, we cannot influence some circumstances, but we do everything we can to ensure that doctors have modern equipment to save lives and provide the highest quality medical care.

The support and assistance you all provide is truly inspiring. Every donation matters. Any form of participation — from donations to reposts — brings us closer to acquiring medical equipment capable of helping children.
