Voices Camp: Restoring Childhood in Ukraine

While recent months have been dedicated to preparation rather than implementation, our team is now in a highly active phase—designing and building the upcoming Voices Camp 2026, one of our most impactful psychological support programs for children affected by the war.

This year, we are planning 9 camp shifts (1 in the spring and 8 during the summer), each welcoming 56 children, for a total of over 500 children who will receive structured psychological support. To reach even more children, our summer sessions will run in parallel, allowing two groups to participate at the same time across multiple shifts.

For 2026, Voices Camp will take place in Vyzhnytsia, in the Chernivtsi region, a new location surrounded by beautiful nature. This environment plays a critical role in the program itself, offering children something many have not experienced in a long time: a sense of calm, safety, and stability.

But Voices Camp is not simply a summer camp. It is a professionally designed psychological recovery program. Through individual and group sessions, creative expression, and guided peer connection, children are supported in:

• processing traumatic experiences
• rebuilding a sense of safety 
• creating new friendships with other children across the country
• reconnecting with trust, joy, and childhood

Behind the scenes, our team over the last 3 months has been working intensively to ensure that each session delivers consistent, high-quality care—from program design and staff training to logistics and safeguarding.

Your support over the past months is already at work. Donations are directly enabling the preparation and upcoming implementation of these camp shifts by covering trained psychologists, program delivery, and the safe, supportive environment each child needs.

By expanding Voices Camp in 2026, we are not only reaching more children. We are intervening at a critical moment in their lives, helping them build their dreams and carry forward healthier ways of coping, long after the camp ends.
