HART Support Ukraine | Charity

Q: Why partner with local churches?

Sustainability & Effectiveness. At the core of HART’s philosophy is the strong belief that the local church is the most effective and sustainable way to create positive change in communities. We have seen this firsthand over the past 3 decades of working in Ukraine. HART’s approach focuses on building partnerships with local churches; providing resources, supporting the development of effective strategies and programs for compassion and evangelism, with an emphasis on the long-term sustainability of those initiatives.

Q: Why do gifts to HART go further?

Cost-Effectiveness. Collaborating directly with in-country partners who have a deep understanding of the local context enables HART to maximize the impact of every dollar donated. This approach makes aid delivery significantly more cost-efficient

Help Bring Hope to Ukraine

A War That Hasn’t Ended

For millions of people in Ukraine, war is not a headline-it’s daily life.

Families are waking up to sirens, children are growing up in shelters, and entire communities have been uprooted from everything they’ve ever known. The scale of suffering is staggering, and the need for compassionate, reliable action has never been more urgent.

OUR PROGRAMS

But There Is Hope

Yet even in the midst of devastation, something remarkable is happening. We are empowering the local church to be agents of change.

— Your generosity makes this possible —

Every dollar you give to the Ukraine Crisis Fund flows directly to vetted local church partners with zero administrative waste.

No bureaucracy. No delays. Just real help reaching real people in the places that need it most:

Delivering food to families in frontline communities.

Providing shelter to the displaced.

Caring for children and seniors.

Offering trauma support and spiritual hope.

These are not distant organizations parachuting in with supplies. These are neighbors, pastors, and volunteers who have chosen to stay and serve.

CRITICAL NEEDS

Emergency Backpacks

Schools are advising children to keep a second backpack ready at all times, in case of sudden evacuations to bomb shelters due to missile strikes. These emergency backpacks will contain survival essentials. Help children in Ukraine be ready when the sirens sound.
