Introduction

In the interest of preserving the life and health of children, in the face of the ongoing war in Ukraine, The Children’s Aid ‘Happy Kids’ Foundation, in cooperation with the City of Łódź, has launched an action to save the most vulnerable victims: children from orphanages and foster care.

The evacuation of orphans from orphanages, foster families and other forms of care from Ukraine to Poland, is coordinated by Aleksander Kartasiński – the President of the ‘Happy Kids’ Foundation and Social Plenipotentiary of the Mayor of the City of Łódź, Hanna Zdanowska, for contacts with Ukrainian authorities on the organization of care for Ukrainian children in Łódź.

The ‘Happy Kids’ Foundation is carrying out the evacuation of young refugees in close cooperation with the Department of the Protection of Children's Rights and Adoption of the Ministry of Social Policy of Ukraine and the Ministry of Family and Social Policy of the Republic of Poland. Our organization, together with the City of Łódź, coordinates the relocation of refugees throughout the country in agreement with local government units.

Since the beginning of the war, we have already saved thousands of children (including those with dysfunctions and disabilities) together with their guardians: incl. from Kharkiv, Kherson, Lviv, Kiev, Odessa, Poltava, Volyn, Zhytomyr. The youngest survivors were not even one year old. It is still a drop in the ocean of needs. The situation of children in orphanages and foster care in Ukraine is exceptionally critical.

The intensity of military operations and the cruelty of the Russian aggressor against Ukrainian civilians make our actions focus on saving as many children as possible - in the shortest possible time. At the same time, we are also acquiring places that meet decent housing conditions, adapted to the needs of the evacuated groups of children.

They find a safe haven and care in the Family Orphanages of the ‘Happy Kids’ Foundation, foster families, orphanages in Łódź and other local governments from all over Poland that offer help.

Let’s save the lives in need together.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for every kind of support.
