Our History
Our organization's founding story is one of chance encounters and a shared passion for helping those affected by the war in Ukraine. It began when Kelli, our President was volunteering in Ukraine during the Spring of 2022. Through a mutual friend, she met Tyler, who also happened to be a volunteer in the country. Upon returning to the US, they discovered that they both lived in the same town, just five miles apart. To their surprise, they also learned that S, a Ukrainian, was also living in the same town. These serendipitous events brought the three of them together and laid the foundation for our organization.
Our mission
Our mission is to support Ukraine and its people, particularly those who have been injured during the war. We are deeply committed to making a positive impact on the lives of innocent civilians affected by this conflict.
Why Donate?
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has caused countless personal tragedies, including a significant number of amputations. As the conflict continues, it is estimated that thousands of soldiers and civilians will require prosthetic limbs, and many will not receive the immediate or any assistance they need.
By making a donation to our organization, you can help improve the lives of amputee children, young adults, and adults by providing them with the prosthetics they need to enhance their quality of life and promote their growth and development. Your support will go directly towards helping those in need.
