From the very first day of the full-scale invasion, the Vadym Stolar Foundation began working to provide civilians and Ukrainian service members with everything they needed. Over the course of four years, under the leadership of its founder and patron, 4.5 million people have received assistance.
According to the Foundation’s volunteer, Nataliia Prykhodko, despite how challenging these four years have been for the team, everyone remains committed to continuing to help people and work for the benefit of the country for as long as it is needed.
“Four years of daily hard work, the pain and suffering of people that you carry through yourself, the effort to help everyone we can reach, the constant search for what is needed… Are we tired? Of course. Are we exhausted? No. We are fully aware of why we do what we do. This is our contribution to helping Ukrainians hold on — both on the front line and on the home front. Our contribution to a peaceful future and to the rebuilding of Ukraine, which — I truly believe — will flourish and become even better than it was. This faith and the understanding of the value of our work do not allow us to give up,” said Nataliia Prykhodko.
“I am grateful to our defenders who have been resisting the enemy’s full-scale aggression for four years. I am also thankful to all Ukrainians who, despite the harsh realities of war, continue to work for the good of our homeland, support one another, and bring peace closer. Together, we will overcome all difficulties,” said the founder of the Foundation, Vadym Stolar.
