What we do

Helping people rebuild their lives — and feel at home

After evacuation a new path begins: finding housing and work, settling the children, getting to know the city and its people. SPILKA PORUCH was founded by displaced people, so this experience is close to us.

We bring the support people need together in one place: help with first needs, accompany families and create opportunities to learn, work and find one’s circle.

Psychological and psychosocial support is part of this path, and the community helps people feel there is someone to turn to, talk to and act with.

IDP Hub

IDP Hub — from first aid to a place in the community

Where to look for housing? How to find a job? Where to get help? After displacement these questions arise all at once.

At the SPILKA PORUCH IDP Hub it can all start with a single request. We help people get oriented, identify needs and find available support — from basic humanitarian aid and consultations to learning and employment.

Workshops, excursions and meetings help people get to know the city. The University of the Third Age opens space for an active life for people 55+. Families needing longer-term support receive individual case management.

PORUCH SPACE

PORUCH SPACE — where childhood has room to grow

In a new city a child needs friends, something exciting to do and adults who support their ideas.

At PORUCH SPACE children and teenagers learn for free, do arts and sports, and explore technology and professions. Creating their own projects and working together, they develop independence, communication and problem-solving skills.

Psychological support and attention to different needs are part of the centre’s work. In SAFE Spaces set up in shelters, children in frontline communities can meet and learn in person.

Experience

Experience we build on

Rebuilding damaged homes, humanitarian missions, help after the Kakhovka dam destruction, children’s camps and joint initiatives with business — every completed project became part of SPILKA PORUCH’s experience.

We keep the results of this work and use what we have learned to develop programmes and new partnerships.
