Alisa
At just 2 years old, Alisa doesn’t understand what war is, but when she gets older, she will learn how and why her father, Oleksandr, died for the future of their country. Alisa’s father promised that after the victory, he would finish building a house for his family and send Alisa to the best nursery. Sadly, he didn’t have time to fulfil his dreams because the Russian occupiers killed him on the battlefield.
Oleksandr was an anti-aircraft missile unit commander and fought the enemy near Volodymyrivka, in the Donetsk region. During a combat mission, the man was killed by enemy artillery fire. Despite Alisa’s young age, she still cherishes pictures and videos of her and her and her Dad together, and waits for him to come home every night to give her a hug.

Serhii & Artem
Serhii and Artem’s family lives in the small town of Snovsk in the Chernihiv region. Their father, Oleksandr, worked as a border guard, and in his free time he liked to take the boys fishing.
Since childhood, Serhiy and Artem have been fascinated by their father’s profession. But when they grew up, the boys took up a new hobby: football.
With the beginning of war, Oleksandr stood up to defend his native land. When russian troops retreated from Chernihiv, the man was diagnosed with cancer. The family fought for their father’s life, but, unfortunately, the disease won.
Oleksandr was a Hero and inspirational role model. After the loss, the kids stopped playing football. But thanks to the efforts of their mother and coach, they gradually returned to the game. Now, Serhiy aspires to become a professional footballer, while Artem plans to follow his father’s professional path.
