Today, I’m celebrating my 24th birthday and reflecting on how lucky I am to have such amazing loved ones. To highlight this, I’m asking for donations to @KHARPProject, founded by my friend @padochka.
May this year bring some light to all 💛 kharpp.com/how-to-donate/

Life in Ukraine has grown harsher since our last update. In Kam’ianka, a village heavily scarred by war, we’ve been working to help residents survive the winter with new windows and firewood. Thanks to @Habitat_org for their generous firewood donation. 🧵
This Christmas, as Ukraine faces freezing weather & power outages, your support means warmth and hope. Every window repaired, every firewood delivery shows Ukrainians in de-occupied territories that they’re not alone.
We are so pleased that this conversation between our co-founder and the co-founder of our main collaborative partner, Livyj Bereh, has been published by @e_flux!
>ᴗ< it’s my birthday and all i want is job security смерть всем оккупантам (maybe it will happen?)
the average price of a pint in the uk is £5.17 (apparently) so if you fancy celebrating another year of me you can buy me a virtual pint by donating to @kharpproject
Vicky, who volunteered with us in summer 2022, is running the Kyiv “Unbroken” Half Marathon next week in aid of KHARPP. Please donate!

In our latest newsletter, we update you on the work we have been doing over the past few months. Our main work continues to be repairs, and this summer we have focussed our efforts on Derhachi, Tsyrkuny, and Slatyne.
We also pay tribute to the late David Knowles, founder of Ukraine: The Latest podcast His podcast brought attention to countless Ukrainian causes, including ours. Our interview with him last year led to the largest wave of support we’ve seen. We owe him so much. Вічна пам'ять.
The Russian offensive in the Kharkiv region has impacted many of the communities in which we do work, leaving the situation tense. We’ve spent the past week touring many of the villages to assess how we can move forward with our support.
Here’s what we’ve done 🧵
Lastly, we want to thank everyone who continues to support our efforts through fundraisers and other means. We're especially grateful to everyone involved with Cambridge Kupala Fest last month which raised money to aid KHARPP and the communities we serve last month.
Small donations make up the majority of our income and we are only able to keep working thanks to your support.
Please keep giving so we can keep supporting these communities.
