Volunteers' motivation is a base for defenders' support
Volunteers and activists are the lifeblood of the Ukrainian nation.
In 2014, thanks to them, Ukraine survived as a state, and nowadays they are a huge driving force that helps Ukraine to survive. They are the ones who make decisions faster than the sluggish bureaucratic state machine -
and ultimately tilt the balance of power in Ukraine's favor.
Now they are burning out and need our help
At such a crazy pace, people burn out - and if we turn to the question of helping volunteers and activists, we are likely to find a void in that place. Large foundations help the categories they understand - orphans, women, victims of violence, the elderly - but no one thinks to take care of those on whom both the front and the rear are held.
Resurrection retreats for Ukrainian volunteers and activists
A crisis experience as a trauma springboard
We organize recovery programs for those who are at the core of the beating heart of Ukraine - volunteers and activists.
We know from our own experience that a crisis experience directed in the right direction can become an existential springboard rather than a trauma.
We want to support the pulsation of the core of Ukrainian society,
to make it healthy and strong, to teach it to recover, to fill up and to help others to do so.

Yevhen Vovk Founder Hi, my name is Yevhen Vovk, born in Kyiv, living in Georgia. I was living peaceful life, doing tea ceremonies and organising meditation and dance retreats. In 2020 I realized a dream - I opened a retreat center in the mountains and started organizing embodiment programs. During the pandemic our place hosted hundreds of people, giving them shelter, hope and energy to live. In 2014-15, I was already at war in Ukraine, working in crisis management for Amnesty International. At that time I spent 15-20 days a month on and behind the front lines, often under rocket fire and several times in captivity. During that period, I was in dire need of something that would make me feel alive. It was then that embodiment practices came into my life, allowing me to integrate the war experience and make it a resource for growth and development in my life. Unfortunately now the war has entered a full-scale phase, forcing most of us to defend our home with weapons in hand. The Russian plan for a swift takeover of Ukraine has failed - and at the same time it is already clear that it will take time for Ukraine to win outright. A prolonged war is exhausting and embittering, robbing us of hope and humanity. This is why I believe it is important to create a place where Ukrainians can restore peace. A place that will be safe. A place where Ukrainians will not feel like guests. A place that will welcome hundreds and thousands - and become a symbol of a future peaceful life for millions.mbers of our team and helped them to show their unique talents in the work process.
