Due to possible threats to the security of this family, we chose to unpublish the images identifying the family. The family remains under occupation, and truly needs help.
Good morning! My name is Anastasiya. I live in the Kherson region. I have 4 children. Maksym is 11 y.o., Vova is 9 y.o., Yevhen is 7 y.o. and the youngest son is 5 y.o. My mother’s name is Nataliya. When the war started, we lived with my mother. We heard rocket sounds at night. We were very afraid. Before the war, we had everything – work, money, and social benefits of UAH 20,000. When the war started, things got much worse. We cannot buy many things for children. We can’t pay utilities. We currently do not receive any aid, neither humanitarian nor financial. We want to leave the occupation zone and move to a safe place. When the children saw the rockets, they were very scared. My mother started having heart problems. We want to leave. At the moment, we do not have food and money to buy clothes and other necessities for the children. I used to work in the fields. Now work is rare. We receive UAH 200 per day of work. This is not enough to provide for 4 children. I am a single mother. I want everything to be fine in Ukraine. I pray to God that Ukraine will be peaceful, quiet, and safe and that there will be jobs. I pray for our Armed Forces. I want the war to end as soon as possible so that the “osvobobityeli” (in this way ironically call the Russian occupiers in Ukraine – ed.) go to where they came from. I will be very grateful for your help. I want people to be happy and not need anything. I want to have a job and a home, to have everything. Glory to Ukraine!
