Alisa
Alisa lost both parents during their evacuation from the Chernihiv region in northern Ukraine. The family’s car was shot at by the Russian military, causing it to catch fire and explode. Her parents died immediately while Alisa was projected out of the vehicle. Due to the attack, she received injuries to her corneas and conjunctiva membranes in her eyes; a concussion and burns across her body. She was also was left with severe psychological trauma, continuing to be afraid of loud noises and missing her parents dearly to this day.
Alisa now lives with her aunt and one-year-old cousin, who plans to set aside the money raised for her for her education and future.
