Valeriia Abdal, Co-Founder of the Children of Heroes Charity Fund, joined the 18th episode of the SPIU (Save Peace in UA) Podcast hosted by Andrii Kit to discuss the organization’s long-term support for children who have lost one or both parents as a result of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine. She reflected on how the Fund began its work in the first weeks of the invasion, shared the story of the first family it supported from Bucha, and explained the importance of sustained assistance — including family-based psychological support, psycho-rehabilitation camps, and a commitment to stand by each child until adulthood. The conversation also highlighted the importance of sustainable funding to ensure long-term impact and resilience for Ukraine’s next generation.
