Individual Child Support: a path to new opportunities

In difficult times, children need support they can rely on. Our Individual Child Support program helps each child, regardless of their background, to unlock their potential through mentorship, tutoring, and sponsorship. Thanks to our team and donors, we see children thrive as they build trusting relationships, improve their education and start to succeed in life. The program continues to grow across Ukraine.
