Where dreams become a reality: we are restoring a kindergarten in Lozova!

Childhood should be warm, bright and full of development opportunities. But what do you do when even this basic comfort becomes a luxury due to war? We knew we had to act.

Childhood should be warm, bright and full of development opportunities. But what do you do when even this basic comfort becomes a luxury due to war? We knew we had to act.

In the Kharkiv region, in the Lozova city, our team received a request for help. A local kindergarten, damaged by shelling, needed immediate renovation so little ones could study and dream in safety again. And we immediately got to work!

What did we do?
🛠 We renovated the entrance so young visitors could feel convenient and comfortable.
🛠 We installed a ramp because inclusion is not just a word, it is our goal.
🛠 We replaced the windows so that the rooms would be filled with warmth and comfort.
🛠 We partially equipped the premises with equipment that will help children learn, play and explore the world.

Kharkiv region is one of the most vulnerable regions of Ukraine. Damaged infrastructure, danger and constant stress – this is what the residents here face. But children, even in these conditions, deserve the best.

Our project is not just a repair. It is a hope for parents that their children will be safe. This is a place where little ones can laugh, learn and be happy again.

What’s next?
We do not stop and continue to help communities even in the most difficult times. Because every child in Ukraine has the right to a safe and comfortable childhood.

We sincerely thank all partners for their support, especially Helvetas and Swiss Solidarity. Together we are changing reality for the better!

Creating the future together with Rise 💙💛

Those balloons became her life’s work. As far back as […]
