Civil Society Organization “TSE – NASHA SPRAVA!” continues to provide winter humanitarian assistance to people affected by the war who have limited means to meet their basic needs independently.

The project is being implemented in Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Dnipropetrovsk regions. Its goal is to help people get through the cold season in safer conditions, provide households with fuel and essential items, and support families during prolonged power outages.

The project began in 2025, and its activities were expanded in 2026 in response to the current needs of people and communities.

Assistance Provided in 2025

In 2025, the project covered Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Dnipropetrovsk regions.

A total of 350 households received solid fuel:

• 272 households in Slovianska, Cherkaska, and Kramatorska communities of Kramatorsk District, Donetsk Region;

• 78 households in Myrivska Community of Nikopol District, Dnipropetrovsk Region.

Each household was allocated 7.51 cubic metres of firewood to heat its home during the cold season.

In Izium District, Kharkiv Region, the distribution of 350 individual non-food item kits was planned.

These kits included a mattress, sleeping bag, thermal blanket, emergency foil blanket, power bank, thermos flask, portable burner, and rechargeable flashlight.

Continuation of Assistance in 2026

Who the Project Is Intended For

The assistance is intended for people and families most affected by the consequences of the war who require support during the cold season.

They include:

• older persons;

• persons with disabilities;

• families forced to leave their homes;

• single mothers;

• families with multiple children;

• families with school-aged children;

• households affected by hostilities;

Recipients are selected based on their level of vulnerability, household composition, living conditions, and access to heating and electricity.

The project will help households keep warm, light their homes, prepare hot meals, and stay connected during power outages.

The energy kits will also enable children to continue their education even during prolonged disruptions to the electricity grid.

This is more than material assistance. It supports basic stability, safety, and dignified living conditions for people in communities that continue to experience the consequences of the war.
