Project "A Helping Hand for Zaporizhzhia"

Yevheniia Shchebetun, a 39-year-old resident of the Zaporizhzhia region, struggled to provide for even the most basic needs of her family. Utility debts and a lack of food forced her to borrow money, turning every day into an exhausting trial. The multi-purpose cash assistance provided by Edobro, in partnership with Fida International, gave her family an opportunity to start with a clean slate. Thanks to this support, Yevheniia was able to pay off her debts, purchase food, and provide clothing for her children. She acknowledges that life has become easier since receiving the aid, although medical expenses remain a pressing need. With sincere gratitude, Yevheniia shares: "Thank you for your support. I hope this organization continues to grow and assist people in need."

Project: "PSS-Hub (Phase 2): Support and Development Platform for Children in Ukraine"

Liza and Vitalina Blyshchyk are two young sisters from a large family. When they first stepped into the children’s space, their hearts were filled with anxiety. During the initial sessions, they were very shy and quiet girls who timidly avoided eye contact and barely dared to speak. Fear and self-doubt were evident in their eyes. A new space, new people, new rules — it all seemed too overwhelming and complex. But step by step, session by session, within a warm atmosphere of support and acceptance, a true transformation began to unfold. After completing the program, Liza and Vitalina were unrecognizable. They overcame their shyness, began to open up to the world, smiled, and communicated actively. The girls made friends, learned to express their thoughts and feelings, and now joyfully participate in group activities. This story is a testament to the power of care, a safe environment, and belief in a child. It shows how two quiet sisters from a large family were able to blossom, gaining a sense of self-worth and bravery.
