HOW DOES HELP CHORNOBYL HELP DURING WAR?
Humanitarian aid to Slavutych, aid to medicines to liquidators and victims of war, informing about Russia's nuclear terrorism
Today, russia is committing acts of nuclear terrorism at the Chornobyl and Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plants. They are holding hostages, shelling stations, storing ammunition near nuclear facilities, and setting fire to radioactive forests - which poses a nuclear and environmental threat to the world. The world needs to know and respond accordingly.
We help war-affected areas with a large number of liquidators and victims of the Chornobyl accident, the timeliness of Slavutych, as well as areas that suffered significant losses as a result of Russia's war against Ukraine - Kyiv, Chernihiv, Kharkiv and Zaporizhia regions.
We have a large base of liquidators and victims who needed help before the war. Now that their health and lives depend on critical medications (insulin, thyroxine, etc.), such care is becoming very important, and someone just needs food and basic hygiene products.
What does HELP CHORNOBYL do in peacetime?
Involvement of lawyers, point financial support, personal assistance to liquidators in need, etc.
We help to organize medical support, payment for operations and necessary medicines, liquidators and victims of the Chornobyl accident, who cannot pay for themselves.
Elderly liquidators and victims sometimes find themselves in difficulties when there is no time to wait for help, so together with the Chornobyl-Fukushima Union we support liquidators with personal financial assistance.
Online legal advice and a database of up-to-date knowledge on benefits, pension transfers, and renewal of disability certificates. Advising in the preparation of documents for obtaining an apartment, land, etc.
