Here, Anastasiia shares what motivates her to be part of Ukraine Recovery Aid – and what matters most to her in this work:

Why is the mission of Ukraine Recovery Aid personally important to you?
I am truly happy to be part of Ukraine Recovery Aid and to help children and people in need from my homeland during this difficult time. It is a great honor for me to offer hope and support.

What has brought you the most joy in your volunteer work so far?
I love being able to help children and people in need through my passion for art. In our workshops, participants not only discover Ukrainian art and culture, but also become part of a meaningful mission.

Who inspires you the most in life – and why?
I am most inspired by people and nature. Their strength, beauty, and diversity motivate me to stay creative, explore new paths, and keep believing in the good.

What are you most looking forward to in your role this year?
I’m looking forward to many more creative workshops with my colleagues and all the wonderful people involved in our projects. What’s especially close to my heart is our work on social media: I want to help make the stories, successes, and heartfelt initiatives of Ukraine Recovery Aid more visible – so that even more people can discover our mission and feel inspired by it.
