Heating Points and Evacuation: Assistance to the Affected Population of Ukraine

The project provides comprehensive assistance and protection to citizens affected by russian aggression in Ukraine. It covers a wide range of activities aimed at supporting people in emergency situations, including the establishment of safe spaces, legal and humanitarian aid, and the organization of evacuations from conflict zones.

Setting Up “Points of Invincibility”

Establishing specially equipped locations where people can receive essential assistance during power outages. These points offer a safe environment to stay warm, charge devices, cook, access the Internet, and receive other necessary support.

Support for Transit Shelters in Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, and Dnipro

Ensuring the proper functioning of shelters for individuals with limited mobility, where they can temporarily stay while searching for permanent housing or waiting for the restoration of personal documents. The shelters are fully equipped for short-term accommodation, including hygiene products, sleeping arrangements, and hot meals.

Rapid Isolation of Destroyed Buildings

Responding swiftly to infrastructure destruction by isolating buildings after shelling to prevent further damage. By procuring materials such as OSB, film, slate, nails, and bars, we can carry out effective temporary repairs to protect both property and lives.

Legal Aid

Providing legal support to victims, including assistance with document restoration, compensation claims, and other necessary legal services in crisis situations.

Evacuation
