SupportThe shelter operating under the patronage of the NGO “All-Ukrainian Association ‘Patriot’” in Zaporizhzhia spent a week filled with various activities aimed at providing comprehensive support to its residents. This work was made possible thanks to the cooperation with partners and volunteers.
The key event of the week was the visit of the mobile psychosocial support team from the NGO “Divchata.” A psychologist and a social worker provided the shelter’s residents with qualified psychological assistance and conducted a workshop on making crafts. This initiative is part of a regular support program that ensures emotional stability and socialization for people affected by the war.
In addition to psychosocial support, other important areas of work were carried out at the shelter:
- Support for the military: Through the shelter, humanitarian aid was organized for the military, as well as hygiene supplies for a military hospital, highlighting the community’s active volunteer position.
- Medical examination: An ophthalmologist’s medical examination was provided. The doctor gave qualified consultations, and four residents received referrals for vision correction.
The activity of the “Patriot” Shelter is an example of a comprehensive approach to providing assistance, which includes not only temporary housing but also medical, psychological, and social support.
