⛰️THE MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING! SEND A CHILD TO SUMMER CAMP!🏕️☀️

Help Us Help is excited to announce our 2026 fundraising campaign in support of the 28th Annual Help Us Help Summer Camp Experience!

This August, our goal is to welcome 200 institutionalized and at-risk children to the picturesque Carpathian Mountains for an impactful 14-day retreat. This year’s theme, “Гори кличуть” (“The Mountains Are Calling”), will create moments of healing and adventure and will pave the way for a brighter future filled with possibility.

In a safe and nurturing environment, trained professionals, dedicated Canadian and Ukrainian staff, and volunteers will enhance participants’ emotional well-being, stability, and personal growth through a holistic approach. In addition to providing essential humanitarian aid and medical checkups, we will be hosting creative, outdoor, and educational workshops, along with team-building initiatives.

For more than thirty years, Help Us Help has worked in Ukraine to support the most vulnerable through trauma-informed programming, mentorship, and restorative care.

Our programs cultivate a strong sense of leadership, self-confidence, and stability, equipping every participant with transferable life skills they can carry into adulthood.

Join us in creating an unforgettable experience and help us reach our goal of sending 200 participants to our program! 

Donate today at www.helpushelp.charity - None of this would be possible without the dedication and continued support of caring individuals such as yourselves. Stand with the future generations of Ukraine!

On International Missing Children’s Day, we honour Ukrainian children who have been unlawfully transferred to russia or russian-occupied territories since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

According to data collected by Children of Ukraine and the International Coalition Bring Kids Back UA, 20,570 children have been taken from their homes, families, and communities. These actions demand accountability.

Behind every number is a child with a name, a story, and a future that has been violently interrupted. Behind every statistic is a child exposed to the devastating realities of war, including cultural erasure, forced assimilation, systemic oppression, abuse, and militaristic propaganda.

According to Bring Kids Back UA, only 2,182 children have been returned since 2022, while the number of missing children continues to grow.

For over three decades, Help Us Help has empowered institutionalized children and at-risk youth. Through humanitarian aid, educational initiatives, and specialized programs, we help children heal, learn, and build the confidence they need to create stronger futures for themselves and for Ukraine.

Join us in creating meaningful change, because every child deserves safety, stability, and the opportunity to thrive.
