‘ I remember how you helped me once, and now I want to help others like I did.
The NGO ‘Team kidshelpteam.com.ua’ received a donation of UAH 10,000 with the purpose ‘For a successful start’ – a pretty big sum for an average family from the suburbs of the regional centre and vital for providing four teenagers of the project for a month…
Wow, the money came from Anastasia, a young widow – a mother of four children…
How heartbreaking and impressive it.is. …
The day in 2016 comes to mind when a volunteer of detdom. info told us about a 20-year-old mother who grew up without parental care and started a family quite early. Together with her husband, Nastunya rented a room from relatives and already had two kids – 4 years old and about 1 year old, when suddenly the young dad had a heart attack and in a matter of minutes his life stopped…
This is where our support for the kids and the mother who were left completely without means of subsistence began. The amount of monthly state aid was UAH 860, the amount UAH 550 was spent on renting a room.
Volunteers from Team KidsHelpTeam.com.ua organised fundraisers and supported the family with everything from food and diapers to furniture and repairs.
Later her youngest daughter Olechka went to kindergarten and her mother Nastia was able to go back to work – the family felt a little better and we were able to let them go on their own.
Over time, Anastasia met Vitaliy who became her husband and a caring father to her two older daughters and two more children were born in this wonderful marriage.
It should be noted that Anastasia wore the best wedding dress at the ceremony with Vitaliy, thanks to the help of the owner of the Anabel wedding salon (@anabel.ua), Anna, a long-time friend of kidshelpteam.com.ua.
And everything seemed to be going well – the family had a stable income and development until a full-scale war broke out in 2022… The head of the family, Vitaliy, immediately stood up to defend the state borders, volunteered to prevent evil from reaching his children…
And then there was another disaster – a year ago Vitaliy died.
Only the Universe knows how much strength and courage it took for this fragile young woman to endure all the pain, to take all the trials for granted, to gather herself and move forward!
After the money was transferred, we received a phone call. The caller was Anastasia who thanked us for the period of our support in 2016, saying that she really wanted to help teenage children from boarding schools, like she used to be, wanted to volunteer, wanted to share the goodness and potential she had – the one she said she had received from the NGO Team KidsHelpTeam.com.ua.
Her example shows that even in difficult situations you can be stronger. And you are never alone.
We are sincerely inspired by Anastasia’s actions, she is a huge motivator for us, an incentive to move forward – to continue the Successful Start project – to help teenage children who need it most.
