Today Ukraine, as well as Israel suffers from terrorism on its territory. The antiterrorist operation in the Donetsk and Lugansk oblasts and Crimea annexation led to the fact that Ukraine has more than 1 million refugees from these regions and almost 10 thousand Ukrainian army soldiers wounded in combat. The refugees and wounded soldiers are among the most disadvantaged sections of the population who need a permanent material and moral aid.
We, citizens of Israel, who were born in Ukraine, have vast experience for providing both humanitarian and financial aid from around the world, and in December 2015 created the Fund «Help for You.” We care about the tragedy in Ukraine. We provide and will provide assistance to those who suffered at the war, which imposed outside – adults and children who left their homes and soldiers who were wounded to protect their motherland.
THE MAIN TASKS OF THE FUND ARE:
- Improving the living conditions of disabled children and orphans
- Professional support for people with mental limitations
- Support and protection of big families, single mothers, the elderly and disabled
- Improving the quality of life of migrants from the Crimea, and from the Donetsk and Lugansk oblasts
- Improving the quality of life and rehabilitation of Ukrainian soldiers who were wounded in the area of ATO
- Help for repatriation and adaptation in Israel
