The war has tragically cut the carefree childhood of Ukrainian children short. Some have lost their homes, others their schools, friends and, worst of all, the people closest to their hearts: their mothers, fathers or both parents. This pain is immeasurable and cannot be healed in one day.

Camp is a place where children:
Make new friends , who are going through similar experiences—giving them a sense of unity, safety and support.
Take their minds off of the horrors of war, and recover emotionally through daily activities and entertainment.
Discover talents and abilities, they never knew they had, and learn new and useful skills.
Receive psychological support from qualified professionals to help them understand their own emotions better and begin the journey to emotional healing.
The Children of Heroes Charitable Foundation provides long-term and comprehensive support to children who have lost their parents to war. As of March 2024, 8129 children are under the Foundation's care. Unfortunately, the war continues and this number is growing daily. Join us in our mission to give Ukrainian children a better life.
