Kyiv • UNN
Vadym Stolar's Charitable Foundation has provided assistance worth UAH 681 million over 1000 days of war. 162 million was spent on supporting other foundations, social projects, and grant programs.
The global mission of charitable foundations and volunteers during the war is to preserve the Ukrainian nation. This was stated by the founder of the Charitable Foundation Vadym Stolar, quoted in an article on the portal bigmir.net, UNN reports.
The article describes in detail the results of the Foundation's work over 1000 days of full-scale war.
For example, during this period , the Vadym Stolar Foundation provided a total of UAH 681 million in aid. At the same time, more than UAH 162 million was allocated to support other charitable foundations, NGOs, a grant program, social projects for civilians and the military, and donations.
"This year, the team thought about the more distant future and once again discussed the Foundation's global mission and strategic goals. We came to the conclusion that while the mission of the Armed Forces is to preserve Ukraine's independence, the mission of charitable organizations and volunteers is to preserve Ukrainians and the Ukrainian nation," the article says.
This mission is realized through specific projects of the Vadym Stolar Foundation. Such as "++ for the Armed Forces" aimed at helping the military; "Recover", which helps in the psycho-emotional rehabilitation of families with children most affected by the war; other psychological assistance initiatives implemented under the "Support" project; initiatives aimed at maintaining the physical health of Ukrainians, humanitarian missions to different regions of the country, etc.
In addition, the Foundation is actively developing cooperation with other organizations to help people more effectively under the Grant for a Cause program. Charitable and non-governmental organizations that deal with the physical and psychological recovery of Ukrainian soldiers and citizens in the war can receive a targeted non-refundable payment from the general fund of UAH 1,000,000.
A special place in the activities of the Foundation is the publication and promotion of the book "Stories of the Strong", through which the team realizes its mission to preserve national memory. These are harrowing memoirs of real people about their own experiences of the first days of the war, occupation, captivity, and shelling, which are important to preserve for future generations. This is the truth about the bloody war that is still going on and the facts of the crimes of the occupying army, the perpetrators of which must be punished. The book has already been published, and its theatrical presentations have taken place both in Ukraine - in Bucha and Odesa - and abroad - in Warsaw and Brussels.
"Both I personally and the entire team of our Foundation clearly understand our global mission during this terrible war - we have to help preserve the Ukrainian nation. That is why we are constantly expanding the geography and scope of our support to both civilians and the military. And we intend to continue to do so for as long as it takes," summarized Vadim Stolar.
