How Together Charity Foundation supports children in shelters across Ukraine

Regular visits to children in shelters are one of Together Charity Foundation’s areas of work. The team and volunteers organise educational activities, creative workshops and group games, giving children opportunities to connect, try something new and explore their abilities.

Individual attention matters during these visits. One child may want to talk about their day, another may have a question, while someone else may need time before joining an activity. We value the opportunity to be present and respect each child’s pace.

The work also includes helping improve shelters and temporary accommodation. Following forced displacement, children can take part in educational activities and social adaptation programmes. The team maintains contact with young people after they leave a shelter, including support with education and the transition to independent life.

This work brings together the team, volunteers and partners. For us, responsibility means listening carefully to children’s needs, speaking respectfully about their experiences and following through on our commitments. Charity takes shape through practical actions and a willingness to keep showing up.

You can get involved with Together Charity Foundation through volunteering, professional expertise or financial support. Tell the team about the skills and time you can offer so that you can discuss a suitable way to contribute.

We thank everyone who gives their time, knowledge and care to this work. These shared efforts make it possible to continue supporting children.
