About us
Children of Heroes was founded to help the countless number of Ukrainian children who have suffered the ultimate tragedy: the loss of a parent, or parents, during the ongoing war. The Fund provides the children and their families with comprehensive assistance, led by our team of Family Helpers. Our assistance programs are funded by our partners and donors.
We believe the children of Heroes, those who have fought bravely for a free and prosperous Ukraine, are also Heroes themselves and deserve care and ongoing support to help them achieve a brighter future.
Our mission
To help Ukrainian children who have lost one or both parents during the Russian war by providing them with long-term support – in all aspects of life.
Our programs
All of our initiatives are dedicated to improving the well-being of children who have suffered from the effects of the war and your gift directly helps each child supported by the Fund until he or she reaches adulthood. Your generous donation will fund programs including: humanitarian and emergency aid, psychological care and therapy, crisis management, legal aid, educational support, as well as the provision of food, warm clothing and assistance securing shelter for children, when needed.

CHILD PROTECTION POLICY
Children of Heroes’ safeguarding commitment is to ensure that all children the Foundation is caring for are protected from both deliberate and accidental harm and abuse caused by Foundation staff and other representatives.
That’s why we developed and strictly applied the Child Protection Policy – a comprehensive child safeguarding framework that is based on UN and EU standards and global best practices that meets the standards for protecting children from harm and responding appropriately to concerns should they occur.
