From the extreme cold of winter to the challenge of rebuilding, the people of Ukraine face a journey that requires both urgent help and future-focused investment.
Star of Hope is on the ground, working through local organizations to provide warmth, education, and opportunity where it is needed most.
Direct Reports: Zvyahel, Kramatorsk & Kharkiv
In the heavily affected southern and eastern regions, we have been distributing firewood to families completely cut off from electricity and heating. When our help arrived, many had been without power for nine days. For them, this wood isn’t just fuel—it’s a lifeline for survival.
In Kramatorsk, this wood is powering a local bakery where church volunteers are working tirelessly. The scent of freshly baked bread is spreading hope in an area defined by anxiety and freezing temperatures. Every loaf shared is a simple but vital act of care.
Through our incredible network of local congregations and dedicated volunteers, we continue to reach those who need it most. All of this is made possible by you—our donors and partners. Your generosity is transformed into warmth, food, and hope.
