THE RAY OF HOPE is a Stand for U project to provide humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
The project has run since the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine as a local volunteer initiative.
On June 16th, The Ray of Hope became part of the newly registered Stand for U charity.
By June 2025, we had managed to supply over 55 tonnes of humanitarian aid, one bus, and six evacuation vehicles, including two ambulances.
We thank our supporters and donors for their continuous support. Together, we are making a difference in Ukraine.

We are updating this section -
Support animals affected by the war in Ukraine
The project is raising money to purchase and deliver pet food and pet care items to Ukraine. We are working with a charity in the Kharkiv region, which russian attacks have badly damaged. We also work with the veterinary hospital for working dogs, such as sniffer dogs.
After the disaster of Nova Kahovka Dam and the flooding of part of the Kherson Region, we also support shelters that host rescued animals.
More than 3 tonnes of pet food and pet care items were sent to Ukraine and 500 killogrames are waiting for the delivery.
Generators for Ukraine
This project is raising money to purchase and deliver electrical generators, and large power banks (power stations) for the Ukrainian non-profit organization Hromadska Varta which provides immediate humanitarian Aid in Kharkiv Region and on territories recently freed from the russian invasion.
More than 45 generators are delivered to Ukraine

Help us to deliver humanitarian aid to Ukraine
We have sent more than 45 tonnes of humanitarian aid, including first aid items, electro generators, medical equipment, walking aids, pet food and care items, warm clothes and much more.
But the need continues. However, delivering this crucial support costs up to £1000 per tonne.
This is where you come in: with the rising cost of living impacting everyone, we urgently need your help to cover these delivery costs. Every donation, big or small, will make a real difference.
