KHARKIV REGION, UKRAINE

“Due to the war, our family lost our sources of income — we barely cope,” says Olena, who lives in Volokhiv Yar village with her husband, mother-in-law, and three children — with a fourth on the way. With a wood-burning stove in the house and a small farm to care for, firewood is essential. Thanks to support from the Ukraine Humanitarian Fund (UHF) and humanitarian organizations, her family received enough firewood to get through the winter. Southern Development Strategy/CORE
