A WORD FROM OUR FOUNDER
Amid the invasion of Ukraine, we are confronted once more with the distressing reality of innocent lives being needlessly harmed and wounded. In this challenging period, the Bravery Foundation stands ready to offer assistance and support.
Since early 2022, our efforts have been impactful. We've provided an ambulance, transported over a ton of vital medical supplies, and various humanitarian aid to hospitals and paramedics in Ukraine. Additionally, we facilitated the settlement of the first Ukrainian family in Kelowna, extending support to numerous others as they integrate into our community. As a purpose-driven and action-oriented Okanagan charity, we remain committed to supporting Ukraine and its people.
The Bravery Foundation extends a warm welcome to Ukrainian newcomers, fostering their integration into our community through the Okanagan Ukrainian Hub. Through strategic partnerships with local organizations, we offer displaced Ukrainians access to essential resources, including emergency dental care, as well as avenues for resume assistance, English classes, entrepreneurial resources and so much more. To further support their transition, we've developed comprehensive web pages, enabling our new community members to easily access Canadian federal, provincial, regional and local resources.
Through our backing of Canadian medical volunteers committed to extending humanitarian aid to Ukraine, the Bravery Foundation plays a vital role in delivering essential provisions. We ensure much-needed medical supplies, clothing, sustenance, and clean water are provided to those unable to procure these necessities themselves.
Equally significant is our partnership with an orphanage in Rivne, Ukraine, which serves as a platform for raising awareness about Ukrainian children who have tragically lost their families and loved ones. Through this connection, we strive to shine a light on their plight and extend our support to these vulnerable individuals.
We take pride in our partnership with the United Way in British Columbia, united by our shared mission to aid Ukrainians in need. Together, we exemplify the power of community and solidarity.
The Bravery Foundation remains steadfast in our commitment to extend assistance and support to all those affected by this unjust war.
