Resilience Initiative
We support Ukrainian children in education, creativity, sports and recreation, even in times of war, and also contribute to the development of the country’s cultural and spiritual potential
About the project
Our mission is to support people in Ukraine whose lives have changed because of the war. We help children and adults maintain stability, receive education, medical care and other necessary conditions for the development of society and everyday life.
Main areas of activity:
1. Support for additional education
and sports
We raise funds for materials, inventory and equipment for children's art schools and educational institutions, sports facilities, creating conditions for the creative, physical and personal development of children. To do this, we plan to organize exhibitions, master classes and other cultural and sports events that will not only attract attention to our work, but also help collect the necessary resources.
2. Assistance to medical institutions
We help improve medical infrastructure by helping to provide local hospitals with equipment that makes diagnostics and treatment more accessible and better quality, eliminating the need to travel to large centers.
In addition, we plan to develop psychological support programs, including art therapy and group activities, to strengthen the emotional health of children. Organizing outdoor recreation and leisure activities will be an important step in supporting their physical and mental well-being. We believe that by working together we can make people's lives in war conditions more sustainable, safe and filled with opportunities for development. In the future, we also intend to participate in the restoration of cultural sites and artifacts destroyed by the war, in order to provide children with everything they need for comfortable development and education, preserving their creative potential and contributing to the restoration of Ukraine.
Who do we help?
Fundraising for a Generator for the Odessa Sports Palace!
Goal: 31,850 USD
These funds are necessary for the purchase and delivery of the generator.
Why is the generator needed?
The Odessa Sports Palace is the main sports and cultural center of Odessa.
Due to frequent power outages, the operation of the Sports Palace is under threat. Without reliable power supply, training sessions, competitions, and events are impossible.
A 350 kW generator will ensure:
-
Uninterrupted operation of the Sports Palace even during power outages.
-
Training for more than 500 athletes, including Olympic teams.
-
Hosting large-scale events attended by up to 5,000 spectators.
-
Every donation brings us closer to our goal. Together, we can preserve sports, culture, and inspiration for the people of Odessa!
Help for the Children's Art School in Kovel
The Kovel Art School named after Andronik Lazarchuk , founded in 1987, currently educates 220-250 students, including IDPs (Internally Displaced Persons) and orphans, in its own 357 m² premises. Over the years, more than 2,600 children have received basic knowledge of drawing, painting, sculpture and art history. Students actively participate in various competitions and exhibitions, demonstrating high results.
Since the beginning of the war, the number of students has increased significantly, but the current level of funding is insufficient to ensure a full-fledged educational process. The school needs art materials, inventory, and an updated material and technical base to maintain a high level of education and help young artists realize their creative potential.
News and Events
1000 days of war are not only human tragedies, but also the loss of our common history, culture and traditions. Every destroyed monument, every shelling of a museum or temple is a wound inflicted on the memory of generations. Despite these losses, Ukraine continues to fight. Our efforts are aimed at maintaining the usual rhythm of life: cultural events, children's creativity, sports - this is what helps people keep faith, fills them with hope and strengthens the connection with their native land. We talk about what was destroyed to preserve the memory. We strive to support those who do the impossible so that the culture, monuments and traditions of Ukraine continue to live. This war must be stopped! Each destroyed object is another part of the past that can be lost forever. Join our project to protect not only people, but also the culture of Ukraine. Only by uniting can we preserve all that is most valuable!
Help in action
Dermatoscope for Vinnytsia hospital
Thanks to the efforts of the Resilience Initiative and the Russian Democratic Society , a dermatoscope was purchased and donated to the University Clinic named after
M.I. Pirogov in Vinnytsia. In the conditions of military conflict, state resources are directed to emergency medical care, which makes the acquisition of such important devices as a dermatoscope difficult. However, this device is extremely important for the early diagnosis of melanoma and other malignant skin tumors, which increases the effectiveness of treatment and saves lives.
The M.I. Pirogov University Clinic in Vinnytsia, founded in 1946, is not only a historically significant medical institution, but also provides free services to a large number of patients. During the conflict, the number of visitors to the clinic tripled, and many people who were unable to go to other medical institutions were forced to go here. Thanks to the dermatoscope, doctors will be able to provide quality care, saving lives and continuing their difficult work even in difficult conditions.
