Support Critical Recovery Efforts for Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital in Kyiv

A large group of civilian volunteers help remove rubble from a destroyed building by hand.

On July 8, 2024, Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital, Ukraine’s largest children’s hospital, was severely damaged in a russian missile attack on Kyiv. This attack was part of a larger bombardment across Ukraine that resulted in 41 people dead and 166 injured, including devastating blows to our most vulnerable – the children. The hospital itself has suffered severe and significant damage.

Okhmatdyt is a premier hospital in Ukraine where thousands of children, including those with cancer, undergo life-saving treatments every year. This missile attack is another illustration of the lengths russia will go to destroy Ukraine, its people, its sovereignty and its very identity!

A week has passed since the missile attack occurred and with each passing day, the situation grows more overwhelming and more dire. Without a question this attack is one of the worst since the full scale invasion began.

Nova Ukraine is committed to helping in whatever ways it can including supporting restoration efforts, providing for much needed medical equipment and medicine, clean water, food and a provision of safe space.

Please consider joining Nova Ukraine with a special donation to help those affected by this terrible attack. Every dollar helps and your generosity will change lives.

‘Language and Thinking’ Program Prepares Young Ukrainians for Future Leadership

With Nova Ukraine’s support, Bard College leads writing- and discussion-filled workshops on the topic of justice Students from across Ukraine developed critical reading, writing, and civic leadership skills in a new program this summer supported by Nova Ukraine. The tuition-free, residential program, called Language and Thinking Kyiv, was based on Bard College’s Institute for Writing and Thinking approach to learning and was led by students and faculty members from the school. A total of 29 high school students completed the three-week program, which focused on the theme of “justice.” Students read and discussed texts written by Václav Havel, Lesia Ukrainka, Martin Luther King Jr., and others, and zeroed in on topics such as freedom, responsibility, and dignity. The students worked in small, immersive workshops and practiced a variety of writing formats, including free writing, loop writing, and process writing—all in English—and then shared and discussed their work with their classmates to examine and refine their own thought processes. One example of their assignments was the use of dialectical notebooks, in which students write down their thoughts about a text they had read together, then pass their notebook to another student to add their perspective.

Planning, Not Reacting: Ukraine’s Rescuers and Nova Ukraine Prepare for Winter Side by Side

On the tenth floor of an apartment building on Kyiv's left bank last January, Svitlana could not bathe her three-year-old daughter, Arina, or cook her a hot meal. After strikes on the energy system, they had gone more than three days without heat or electricity, in temperatures as low as -18°C. So she wrapped Arina in layer after layer and took her down ten floors of a dark stairwell to a heated tent that Ukraine's State Emergency Service had set up outside. There they could warm up, eat something hot, charge a phone and talk with a psychologist. Millions of Ukrainian families lived some version of that winter. When the power goes out, heat and water often go with it, elevators stop, and anyone who depends on electricity for medical treatment is suddenly at risk. UNICEF, which documented families like Svitlana's, observed that darkness and freezing temperatures intensify fear and stress for children. For the rescuers of the State Emergency Service, known in Ukraine as DSNS, a winter like that changes the job. They still fight fires and search damaged buildings after attacks. But when power, heat, and water fail, they also put up warming tents, install generators, and help residents get through the outages. Last winter left them, and everyone working alongside them, with a plain lesson: the time to prepare for an emergency is before it happens. Ukraine Is Preparing Earlier This Winter
