CHARITABLE FOUNDATION

CHANCE FOR LIFE
NEW HOPE
SOUL AND HEART WITH UKRAINE

We have built a comprehensive support system that reaches people in need —
from newborn babies to the elderly, from displaced families to those facing difficult life circumstances.

Who we are?

We are an ordinary family who once lost our home, our belongings, and almost lost hope because of the war.
We know what it means to lose your home — and your sense of security in tomorrow.

This experience inspired us to create the “Chance for Life” Foundation — to extend a helping hand to those who now feel hopeless.

Our mission is not only to provide material assistance, but to restore people’s faith in themselves, in justice, and in human kindness.
Because support is not just money or food — it’s knowing that you are not alone.

Our areas of work

We’ve built a comprehensive support system for those in need — from newborns to the elderly, from displaced families to our defenders.

The Foundation’s activities, areas of work, and projects are carried out in accordance with the Foundation’s Activity Program, which defines its goals, objectives, and priorities.

Supporting children with cancer

Every year, more than 1,000 children in Ukraine are diagnosed with cancer. Most parents are not ready — financially or emotionally — to go through this journey. We take young patients under our care, helping raise funds for costly medications, transportation, diagnostics, and rehabilitation. We also cooperate with doctors to find the most effective treatment plans and provide psychological support for families. Childhood should not end in a hospital ward.

In Ukraine, more than 90,000 children are deprived of parental care. We strive to ensure that every one of them feels that the world can be kind.

Our programs include:

  • purchasing clothes and shoes, providing food supplies, educational materials
  • organizing celebrations and events, and holding, workshops to give children dreams about their future professions

Where there is no family — we want to become one.

Newborn babies abandoned in their first days of life are among the most vulnerable. We provide them with special baby formula, diapers, and medicines — and through our partners, we help find families willing to adopt. We work closely with social services to ensure that every child has a chance to grow up in love, not remain just a “number” in a hospital ward. No child should begin life in loneliness.

Every month we receive dozens of requests for help — from cancer patients, people with heart disease, and those recovering after accidents. They all need surgeries, rehabilitation, and medicine, but often the life-saving amount is simply out of reach. We organize fundraising campaigns and charity marathons, working together with clinics and volunteers to save lives. No one should die because of poverty.

Many elderly people live on the edge of survival. Their pensions are barely enough for medicine, let alone food or utilities. We regularly support seniors by providing food packages, essential medicines, assistance with basic living expenses, and most importantly — companionship that reminds them they are not forgotten. Old age should not be a sentence.

Families with children, large families, and those who lost their jobs because of the war often find themselves in complete despair. We provide food supplies, hygiene products, essential household items, and temporary housing in the most difficult cases. A child should never go hungry, and a mother should never fear tomorrow.

Thousands of people have lost everything. Bomb shelters, ruins, and temporary housing modules are often their only hope. We help people to find temporary shelter, restore and replace lost documents, return to a normal life, and receive psychological support after trauma. We believe every Ukrainian deserves a safe home.

Our mission
To bring hope where it’s been lost
To unite hearts for the sake of life
To remember that there are no “other people’s” children or “other people’s” pain
To prove that kindness can triumph even in the darkest of times
