Future for Ukraine is a international charitable foundation created by Ukrainians for Ukrainians. It was founded in March 2022 in Poland on the initiative of passionate Ukrainian women who came to Warsaw to escape the war. Even though they all came from the business world and had no experience in charity, they teamed up for a common goal-to help Ukrainians overcome the consequences of the war.
Later, a second office was opened in March 2022 in Kyiv and 2023 in the USA. Now all three teams of Future for Ukraine work side by side for the future of Ukrainians. Specialists from various fields joined us, strong qualities, energy, expertise, and a desire to rescue and help foster the creation of a powerful and capable team.
We are focusing on:
1. Prosthetics of severely wounded veterans
The war has caused severe consequences for the Ukrainian civilian population and, in particular, for the wounded Ukrainian defenders. For this purpose, we created the initiative of prosthetics and rehabilitation for people with limb loss so that wounds do not become an obstacle to their full-fledged lives. Our partner, the Medical Center Orthotics & Prosthetics clinics (USA), with more than 18 years of experience working with the most complex military injuries in Wolter Read, supports us on this path. Thanks to our joint efforts, Ukrainian defenders receive high-tech prostheses. We also performed over 200 operations to install metal-osteosynthesis systems, connecting bones using titanium plates, for patients with complex fractures.
2. Helping children with ASD
From the beginning of a full-scale invasion in Ukraine, millions of families with children left their homes. Among the forced migrants, there are many children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who need specialized help. For this purpose, we opened the LEVCHYK SPECTRUM HUB in Lviv, which provides about 650 free corrective classes for displaced children with ASD monthly. The remedial classes help children to adapt to new living conditions during the war.
3. Helping women
The goal of the project is to provide high-quality and effective psychological assistance to women to survive a difficult period of life and restore their psychological stability, namely: psychological rehabilitation to overcome the consequences of trauma, restore mental health and improve the quality of life with a focus on the professional development of psychologists in Ukraine and ensuring ethical and dignified approach to these victims.
Tasks of the project:
- Provision of individual counseling and therapy for women who have survived or witnessed SVDC (sexual violence during the conflict) and women who have experienced the trauma of unspecified loss due to the missing of their family members.
- Professional development of psychologists, which provides an opportunity to identify the problems of complex cases and challenges they face in the process of working with beneficiaries by conducting group and individual supervisions for psychotherapists working with female victims of SVDC and victims of the trauma of unspecified loss.
- Raising public awareness of the issues faced by women who have suffered sexual violence during the war, including the development of informational materials on mental health and trauma recovery.
4. Support for medical facilities and medicines for civilians
One of the challenges that the war has caused for Ukrainians is the lack of medicines and access to health care services. That is why, since the very first day of its existence, FFU has been actively working with partners to provide healthcare facilities and civilians with the necessary medicines and medical equipment. In addition, together with our partners from Japan, we have created the Japan Wheelchair Program for Ukraine, under which we will receive and distribute more than 1000 wheelchairs for people with disabilities.
5. Helping forced migrant children
Only in the first 7 weeks of the war in Ukraine, more than 4.8 million minor Ukrainians were registered as internally displaced persons (IDP) in the Unified Information Database of Internally Displaced Persons of Ukraine. The largest number of children — more than 70,000 — have been sheltered in Lviv Region. This caused an excessive load on local kindergartens and schools. To help Ukrainian IDP families with preschool children in Lviv, we opened the CHILDREN HUB. Founded in June 2022 in Warsaw, the hub fulfilled its mission — it became a shelter and true Ukrainian center for more than 1,000 forced migrant families in Poland. And now, CHILDREN HUB supports Ukrainian families who suffered the war consequences in Lviv. Children aged 3 to 7 can visit a hub twice a week for 3 hours a day. Together with qualified teachers, they study the history of Ukraine and the Ukrainian alphabet and get acquainted with the English language through interesting games. Here, in the hub, children also find new friends and discover new hobbies.
We prioritize recovery, rehabilitation, reintegration into active life.
