Why Families Need Support More Than Ever

The war in Ukraine is not over yet and we already see horrific effects on the Ukrainian economy. The typical family now pays 60% more per KWH than what they paid at the start of full scale invasion. In 2022 you could buy a loaf of bread for 18 UAH and now you have to pay 40 UAH, which is a 112% increase. Seniors have been hit very hard by raising prices. As of April 2025, the average pension was 6,341 UAH (~$150 USD), which falls short of the subsistence level of ~6,685 UAH. 30% of pensioners receive ≤ 3,340 UAH (~$80) despite rising living costs.

Pension levels in Ukraine remain only 27% of average salary, compared to a 58% replacement rate in EU averages. Each week during our food distributions events through our Family Support Project we see new seniors joining the food line because they cannot purchase basic groceries to keep food on their tables. If these trends of raising prices and pensions not getting increased we will see thousands of new seniors falling into poverty every month.

What Does Your Help Mean to the Ukrainian Families?

Your support is the bedrock upon which our Family Support Program stands. It transforms our aspirations into tangible realities for the families we serve. When you extend a helping hand, you become the architect of hope for those who have weathered the storms of conflict and displacement.

Your generosity allows us to provide sustenance to 1,700 vulnerable families weekly, offering more than just physical nourishment. It signifies a collective commitment to easing the burdens carried by the resilient people of Ukraine. The food aid kits, hygiene products, and clothing you help us distribute are not just items; they are symbols of solidarity, compassion, and the unwavering belief that brighter days lie ahead.

Your contribution catalyzes positive change as we work towards stabilizing displaced families affected by war. Many families had to flee their homes and live as refugees in their own country. It propels us closer to a future where children can pursue education without interruption, and refugee families can rebuild and thrive beyond the shadows of conflict. Your support to Ukrainian families is the key to unlocking a brighter, more secure tomorrow. So please consider donating and help a Ukrainian family fight these difficult times.
