Please support this Ukraine Children’s Sport team, Balkany FC, in their need to raise money for a trip to USA to participate in a 13-day soccer tour to Florida, May 18-31, 2023 and participation in two of Florida’s top youth soccer tournaments, the Champions Cup, hosted by Florida Rush and the ENIGMA Cup, hosted by FUTSOC. See below their story and request:

We introduce you to youth football club "BALKANY" from Vinnytsia city, Ukraine. Today the club has 285 children aged from 5 to 14, including more than 80 children who moved from the occupied regions.

The war incited by Russia invades daily life and psychologically affects Ukrainian children. Hourly air raid alarms, sitting endlessly underground in bomb shelters hiding from Russian missile attacks on civilian objects, loss of relatives and loved ones in the war – it significantly affects the psychological state of these kids. Every day they lose important feelings of joy, happiness, peaceful sleep, lack of opportunity to study in educational institutions. There are no places in Ukraine where people can feel safe. The children have lost their childhood.


In order to provide psychological support to these young soccer players, United Soccer Academy (Address: 1045 East Atlantic Avenue, Suite 209, Delray Beach, FL 33483, USA director Bill Fisher, website: 

, phone: +1-561-901-8194), has invited the 17 players from Balkanу FC football team to participate in a 13-day soccer tour to South Florida and Orlando.The program will include friendly games, tournament participation, sightseeing, and visiting Disney World.The soccer tour is from May 18-31, 2023.All costs while in Florida will be 100% sponsored by United Soccer Academy, Florida Rush and FUTSOC.

To travel to the Floriuda the players and team does not have the funds to purchase train tickets from Ukraine to Poland, and then plane tickets from Poland to Miami. The club is financed by Parent’s contributions, and right now all Ukrainians are in difficult financial situations due to the war. The travel costs of the team (which will consist of 14 children and 3 trainers, is estimated at $27,000.00 US dollars.


Thus, we are seeking to raise these funds for the Balkany FC, so that the children have a chance to visit Florida and take part in the 13-day soccer tour to South Florida and Orlando.We kindly ask you to donate whatever is possible, if you would like to support this charitable deed together with us. Thank you in advance for your attention and care!

Okhmatdyt hospital has long been a cornerstone of medical care for some of the country's most vulnerable children. Established in 1894, Okhmatdyt has a storied history of saving lives, performing over 10,000 surgeries annually during peacetime with 720 hospital beds serving more than 20,000 patients yearly.



Before russian full-scale invasion, Okhmatdyt was renowned as Ukraine's leading medical institution, providing specialized care across 80 departments for conditions ranging from oncology to rare genetic diseases like SMA, and pioneering procedures such as bone marrow and organ transplants.



In solidarity with our partners at Okhmatdyt, we are actively exploring ways to provide support during this challenging period. Our thoughts are with the courageous healthcare professionals and staff who continue to work tirelessly amidst the chaos and devastation.

Okhmatdyt Hospital: Urgent Relief by UA House

The "Specialized Medical Center for Children with Epidermolysis Bullosa'' has been providing assistance to children with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) and blisters for the past decade. This rare genetic disorder causes thin skin and mucous membranes, which are easily damaged, leading to a lot of suffering for young patients. Sores and blisters can appear on any part of their skin, even with minor friction or injury, causing pain and itching.

EB affects not only the physical health of children but also their psychological well-being, making their everyday lives more challenging and preventing them from enjoying a normal and happy childhood. Epidermolysis bullosa is a rare disease, and only half a million people in the world have it, according to scientists.

In Ukraine, individuals with EB are recognized as people with disabilities and can only be treated at Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital in the "Specialized Medical Center for Children with Epidermolysis Bullosa." In these difficult times, especially in the midst of war, the Center requires our support and encouragement to help all its patients. Unfortunately, there is currently no cure for EB, but further treatment can help alleviate the pain and manage the condition. People with EB cover their wounds with dry plasters, pay attention to their diet, avoid injuries, and seek treatment for pain-related illnesses to manage their symptoms.

Your kind donations will assist us in providing collagen patches that are necessary for bandaging and closing wounds to significantly ease the pain and improve the quality of life for those suffering from EB.

, about 1 million Ukrainians are experiencing 

. Most of these people live on the front lines.

We started our mission in Ukraine following the first days of war and focused on providing targeted help and assistance. We have noticed that only a small part of the food products that came to Ukraine through various international humanitarian organizations was delivered to people living in the front-line area. Most humanitarian aids remained in territories that are far from the combat zone. At the same time, hundreds of thousands of people continue to live in the cities and towns under constant shelling and experience severe food shortages.

UA House sets a mission to deliver and distribute food packages to people who live within 50 miles of the war zone.

Humanitarian Aid Delivery

Update 07-27-2022

Napa Valley has had several refugee families recently settle here. While each has individual family sponsors, there are significant financial needs to get these newcomers firmly established. The most urgent need is for a family of four (a 49-year-old grandmother, her 26 and 11-year-old daughters, and an adorable 3-year-old granddaughter) who arrived in the USA on August 1. They fled from two crises: their home in Mariupol was destroyed, and they were victims of domestic violence. They arrived with almost no possessions. Until they can gain full-time employment, they will need financial assistance with housing (first three to four months rent as they have no credit history in the U.S.) rent, security deposit) a donated car, funds for car + registration and insurance, clothing, household and school supplies, etc. Other Ukrainian refugees we are hosting will also need help with deposits on a rental and funds for car related expenses Our friends at Napa Ford Lincoln will service donated cars for refugees without charge.

Donations of cash and in-kind items such as a well-running car and quality household items. Donations are tax-deductible thanks to our partnership with UA House, a nonprofit serving refugees.

UA English Club is a project striving to connect kids who want to learn English with volunteers who are willing to help. Ukrainian children are facing situations that make it difficult to attend school, especially if displaced from their homes. 

Therefore, we are utilizing the power of video meetings to bring the classroom to them. Our project offers many different classes, some structured as traditional educational courses, while others are casual games. Participants in each class speak English to improve their vocabulary and understanding. Learning English at a young age helps kids interact with the international world and opens up many possibilities for the future. 

We are gathering volunteers around the world who have at least a conversational grasp of the English language so they can talk about these subjects with kids. The format of the lessons is different, but it is a speaking club where everyone can participate. 

In the 1st month of the program, we had 100+ volunteers from 20+ countries speaking with 500+ kids that were collectively having an average of 5 classes per day with 15 students per class. Connecting so many people from around the world that want to help the kids has been absolutely amazing

We are diligently trying to keep the costs of this project as small as possible, and the web-based platform helps us achieve this goal, unfortunately, some expenses are unavoidable. We need your help to fund the ongoing expense of website and video hosting ($2,000/month) as well as two employees ($8,000/mo) that manage the social media, volunteer sign-ups, basic administration, communication, and support. 

All volunteers are welcome to join the program, all you need is a good grasp of English, an hour of your time, and a lot of patience to help the kids learn something about the world. You can teach any subject (Art, History, Reading, etc) or just play games and watch videos in English (I-Spy is a popular one).
