Phoenix: New Routes: Help Ukrainian Women Rebuild After Loss

Dear Friends, on behalf of Ukraine Matters and Taste Route of Prykarpattia, we invite you to support “Phoenix: New Routes”, a six-month program helping 20 wives of fallen Ukrainian defenders heal, reconnect, and build new paths forward through psychological support, community, cultural and creative activities, and restorative experiences in the Carpathians. 

The program goes beyond recovery by helping women rebuild their independence and confidence in the future through professional training, financial literacy, career development, entrepreneurship, and support for employment and small-business opportunities. 

Together, we aim to raise $10,000 to support the first 20 women. We invite you to stand with these women and help turn healing into new opportunities, renewed strength, and hope for the future. 

Thank you so much for your kind generosity and help!
