Voice & Dignity
A Voice for Children
Our work has evolved into a single mission: to be the global voice for Ukraine’s children. Building on our direct care for war orphans, we now focus on the most urgent crisis threatening Ukraine’s future—the mass abduction of its children.
Global Advocacy
We ensure the world does not look away. Through high-visibility campaigns like Empty Beds in NYC, we use art and media to keep the 19,546+ abducted children in global focus—demanding their return and accountability.
Our Roots in Care
Our advocacy is grounded in what we witnessed firsthand. Through projects like the Mahala Deinstitutionalization Pilot and Operation Santa, we saw the vulnerability of Ukraine’s children—an experience that strengthened our resolve to fight for those taken beyond the border.
UNICEF Adopts the Mahala Pilot Program
We incubated it, we proved it, and now they are scaling it. After a successful pilot program demonstrating that individualized care can reverse developmental delays in orphans with disabilities, UNICEF has officially taken over funding for our Mahala project, securing its future as a model for national reform.
Visualizing the Crime: The 'Empty Beds' Installation in NYC
Russia relies on silence to hide the abduction of 19,546 children. We broke that silence in NYC. Partnering with photographer Phil Buehler, we took over a city block with a 100-foot installation exposing the reality of forced deportations and supporting the national 'Bring Kids Back UA' initiative.
Art Unites: Converting Cultural Capital into Housing
We turned an art fundraiser into a housing solution. Partnering with Save Ukraine, we are deploying funds from our 'Art Unites' campaign to refurbish a family home in Irpin. By choosing renovation over new construction, we secured housing for a foster family of four while reserving funds for critical child therapy.
