Pledge to make a difference, together.
Our mission is to save lives. Initially we were founded specifically to support veterans of the war in the east of Ukraine that began in 2014, however it was always intended that the organisation would go on to provide emotional support for every Ukrainian and to become the national suicide prevention for anyone from any walk of life.
Since the beginning of the full scale war which has caused immense suffering across the country the demand for support from Lifeline Ukraine has surged. Before 24/02/22 we used to average 1,000 instances of support being provided per month, now we provide anywhere between 4,000 and 6,000 instances of support per month.
We have adapted as an organisation to the needs of the people of Ukraine as they are reflected in the kind of situations we encounter in our work, and everyone in Ukraine is one way or another a victim of this war. We support people who have lost loved ones, we support people who have been subjected to sexual violence, we support people who have been displaced by the war, and so on.
