The Children of Heroes Fund was established on March 3, 2022. It was initiated by businessman Danylo Pasko, who personally experienced the loss of his father as a child. Driven by a deep understanding of this pain, Danylo gathered a team that shared his values and commitment to supporting children who lost one or both parents in the full-scale war. The idea quickly found support among other Ukrainians, public figures, and entrepreneurs. In April 2022, the Fund officially began its work.
This is how the role of a Family Assistant was created – a person who works directly with families, identifies their needs, and helps address them.
Today, the Fund operates thanks to charitable donations from caring individuals, Ukrainian and international companies, and global organizations. Their support helps improve the lives of Ukrainian children in need.
All reports on the activities of the Children of Heroes Fund are available on our website and social media pages.

We provide our beneficiaries with comprehensive, long-term support across several key areas.
The annual cost of access to all programmes for one child is approximately 200,000 UAH.
We strive to provide everything each child needs. However, with limited resources and a growing number of beneficiaries, we have adopted a needs-based approach. This means the Fund prioritizes families facing the most difficult circumstances and those unable to meet their basic needs on their own.
To strengthen oversight of the Fund’s activities and ensure transparency, we have established a Supervisory Board in Ukraine. It consists of highly qualified managers and a former beneficiary who directly represents the interests of the families supported by the Fund.
The Children of Heroes Fund also has representative offices in the United States and the Netherlands. In each of these countries, a Board of Directors oversees the effective management of the Fund’s activities at the international level.

Every day, we hear the stories of children who have lost their loved ones to war and are now under the care of our Fund. These are stories of resilience, courage, and hope for a better future. You can read some of them in the Children's stories section.
Our mission is to do everything possible to ensure that each of these stories leads to a hopeful, happy outcome. We strive to support as many children in Ukraine as possible, helping them stay strong through difficult times and feel whole and happy again. After all, these children are our future.
It can make all the difference!

З перших днів повномасштабного вторгнення Юрій пішов добровольцем на фронт. На жаль, чоловік загинув під Бахмутом. Ця трагедія стала справжнім ударом для його дружини Галини та двох донечок — 13-річної Таїсії та 11-річної Іринки. Емоційний стан донечок був вкрай нестабільним: вони закрились в собі.
Від фонду «Діти Героїв» сімʼя Найдухів отримала можливість поїхати до табору «Воловець» у Карпатах. Це табір психоемоційної стабілізації для сімей, що постраждали від війни. З перших днів у таборі розпочались позитивні зміни. Вони ходили в гори, малювали, співали, купалися в чанах. Галина каже, що вона вперше після трагедії добре спала. А дівчата, які категорично відмовлялись йти до психолога, після табору самі висловили бажання розпочати роботу з фахівцем!
