Rehabilitation efforts which we supported

On October 7, 2024, the Ukrainian School of Elites supported the efforts of its partner, GoFriends NGO, in providing psychological and physical rehabilitation for families of veterans, internally displaced persons, and vulnerable groups of people (including orphans) affected by Russia’s aggression against Ukraine.

Why GoFriends?

Since 2022, the NGO Go Friends (GoFriends IT Academy) has been actively supporting those affected by the war. On a specially equipped farm, they created conditions for the psycho-rehabilitation of veterans and their families, where they can find healing—both emotional and physical. Spending time in nature is often a critical recommendation from psychologists and psychotherapists.

Results

Each month, 20 to 100 people undergo rehabilitation at GoFriends.

In October 2024, together with our international partners from WEA BC, we supported these efforts of GoFriends financially with a contribution of 40,000 UAH.
