“Woman for woman” is a platform launched by the NGO “Women’s Perspectives” aimed at helping women in crisis. We publish stories from their perspective since no one can tell her story better than the woman herself.
We are enhancing the voice of women in crisis so that their stories could reach those who are able to help.

Christina,

14

Christina is now 14 years old. At the age of 12, this girl experienced a terrible tragedy—the tragic loss of her mother and sister. Later, she suffered from the actions of her stepfather, who continued to live in her mother's house. The stepfather harassed the girl, corrupted her, and committed psychological and physical abuse. Until recently, this man even received financial assistance for her care. Now Christina is safe and under the guardianship of her brother.

Orysia,

Since my teenage years, due to family issues, I have had several suicide attempts and hospitalizations in a psychiatric clinic. Because of my mental health problems, I was fired from my previous job as an SMM specialist. I am now in significant debt. To survive, I started selling sex services for money, as I had no other way to make a living. This has severely affected my mental state. I have no relatives or friends who could help me. I am living below the poverty line.

Anastasia,

I have been diagnosed with uterine fibroids and cysts in my breasts, but I have no money for further examination and treatment. I live in Kamianske, Dnipropetrovsk region. I am a single mother raising my 10-year-old daughter, who has had psoriasis since birth. I work as a cashier in a supermarket, earning a minimum wage that is not even enough for proper nutrition. I have nowhere to turn for help, so I am asking you for assistance.

Maryna,

I found the strength to escape from the hands of a tyrant husband after suffering years of domestic violence. But now I don’t understand how to move forward. While the divorce and child support processes are ongoing, I am staying with acquaintances along with my two small children (a 7-year, 8-year ). I have no money to rent my own home yet. I do not receive any financial assistance. My home is in the Kupiansk district of the Kharkiv region, but it is too dangerous to return there. I am in despair.

I am from the Kharkiv region and am a single mother raising two minor children. My 11-year-old son has a disability. His diagnosis includes severe psychomotor developmental delay, microcephaly, and a combined congenital heart defect. He does not speak, does not understand his surroundings, and requires constant medical care and assistance. We live on a caregiver’s pension of 2,600 UAH and a single mother's allowance of 667 UAH.

Hanna,

My house burned down three weeks ago. The fire was caused by poorly installed heating, leaving only charred and broken walls. We ran out of the house wearing only what we had on. We live in the Kharkiv region. I am a single mother raising my 10-year-old son. We have no relatives and no one to ask for help. We are in urgent need of clothing, household items, food, and financial assistance. In despair, I am collecting the burned remains of my home and asking for help.

We were a perfect family from the outside. When the child has grown a bit, I was planning to get a job. It was then that the things went downhill.
