We need you to RAISE THE ROOF
Since the outbreak of war in 2022, nearly two million homes in Ukraine have been damaged or destroyed—shattered windows, broken doors, and crumbling walls; But behind every ruined home is a person.
We have rebuilt 1,088 homes, but there is still so much to do. So many more homes to restore. So many more lives to rebuild.
We need to raise enough to rebuild another 200 homes or 20,000 shattered windows.
We need you.

Yevdokiya’s story
Yevdokiya is 89 years old, Jewish, and lives alone in Kyiv, Ukraine. An engineer before she retired, she has lived through immense challenges – surviving World War Two, evacuation, and the heartbreaking loss of loved ones. And now, in her later years, she faces the trauma of yet another war. When missiles struck Kyiv one night, Yevdokiya’s home was badly damaged. Her windows shattered, her front door was ripped off its hinges, hitting her on the head and badly injuring her. For weeks, she lived surrounded by rubble, broken glass, and uncertainty.
On a pension of just £79 a month, she simply couldn’t afford to repair her home. But fortunately, we could stand alongside Yevdokiya in her long hour of need. We were able to repair her windows and replace her door – restoring warmth, safety, and dignity to her life.
“If my windows hadn’t been repaired, it would have felt like I’d have to just lie down in a coffin because surviving something like that seemed impossible.”
Now, Yevdokiya no longer has to brace herself against the cold or the fear of sleeping without security. Her home feels like home again.
But Yevdokiya’s story is not just one of hardship – it’s one of hope. Hope that things can get better. Hope that kindness, even from strangers, can help mend what war has broken.
