Charitable Foundation “Voices of Children”

The Voices of Children Charitable Foundation was officially registered in 2019. It was created by human rights activist Olena Rozvadovska and journalist Azad Safarov. Before that, the foundation’s team worked as volunteers. Since 2015, we have been helping children affected by the hostilities.

Today, thanks to donations, we provide psychological assistance and individual humanitarian support to families. We work with communities and institutions for children across the country. In 2022 alone, we provided psychological and humanitarian assistance to 42,300 people.

The foundation’s psychologists, psychiatrists and psychotherapists make sure that Ukrainian children do not lose their childhood and smiles.

The mission of the organization is thatno child should be left alone with the experience of war.

Vision and goals:

• Every child should be given the opportunity to discover their own strength to survive the war and resist challenges
• Every child should understand how to grow up to be a free and responsible person in a free country
• Adults around children can recognize signs of a child’s mental health problems
