Why Voices of Children
Of all the organizations working to help Ukrainian children, Voices of Children stood out immediately. They are the largest Ukrainian foundation providing comprehensive psychological support to children living through war — and they have been doing it for nearly ten years.
My father Kazimierz was born in Chortkiv — a small town in what is now western Ukraine. Driven out at 18 by the Germans and Soviets, he never returned. The children of Ukraine have always been part of my family's story. When Russia invaded in 2022, my wife Jill traveled to the Polish border to meet Ukrainian refugee mothers and their children. We have been connected to this cause ever since.
No Child Should Face the War Experience Alone
Since Russia's full-scale invasion Voices of Children has supported over 54,000 children across Ukraine — providing psychological therapy, art therapy, online support, and safe spaces where children can begin to heal from the trauma of war.
Their programs reach children in active conflict zones, displaced children far from home, and children who have lost parents to the war. Their flagship project — the Childhood Center — will become a large-scale rehabilitation center for children and families after the war ends.
