On July 23^rd a group of our volunteers of #HelpBucha project visited Hostomel and Irpin and provided addressed financial aid for another 13 families. Since the foundation of the project 144 families who had suffered from Russian aggression received financial support. People with who we met described to us the horrors of life under occupation and how they live now:

Olena who lived on Proskurivska street, Hostomel. A lady just returned from abroad where she stayed since the start of the war as a refugee and this is what she saw. Instead of her house and apartment there is rubble.  She can’t find proper words to describe what she feels right now.

We talked with Andriy who before the full-scale invasion worked in construction bureau of SF ‘Antonov’. Andriy’s house was completely demolished as the result of Russian mine’s direct hit. His 19 year old daughter was under rubble of their house and their dog still suffers PTSD.

Some people live in module houses some in houses or apartments which are still standing and more or less proper for housing or even in those that are ruined. What matters is that people return back to their homes and are trying to return to their normal life. And we at the support of our partners help them with that.

We are asking people from all over the world who care and have financial means to support people of Bucha Irpin and Hostomel – donate! And thankful citizens of these cities will never forget your help!
