How It All Began
After the evacuation, Nataliia’s family started collecting food, hygiene products, medicines, clothing, and arranging transportation of humanitarian aid from European countries to Ukraine. These supplies were delivered to Bucha, Ternopil, Luhansk region, and other cities.We also supported the First Volunteer Surgical Hospital in Ivano-Frankivsk, which provides medical care to wounded Ukrainian defenders and civilians, by delivering medicines, medical equipment, and surgical tools. At the same time, we helped Ukrainian refugees in Germany to find housing and complete legal procedures for their protected status.

From the very first day, when we were still known as “Sokil Charity Initiative”, our main focus has been medical and social support.

As part of our project “Escape from War”, we have reached an agreement with the Department of Health and more than 20 medical institutions in the Ivano-Frankivsk region to accommodate over 700 evacuated persons in hospitals. Most of them were elderly, people with disabilities, immobile or seriously ill individuals who had survived bombings, hiding in basements without food or treatment. After evacuation, they required medical examinations, medication, and ongoing support. While staying in medical institutions and receiving medical care, our wards received support with medicines, food, hygiene products, as well as assistance in processing documents: restoring passports, registering IDP status, reactivating pensions, and applying for government financial aid for IDP
