The Ark of Peace Children's Home was founded in 2016 near the city of Mariupol, Ukraine, to help children affected by the Russian-Ukrainian war. Under the leadership of dedicated individuals such as Volodymyr and Oksana Zavadsky, the center has been a safe haven for children in the midst of the turmoil of war. Working with a Christian vision and in collaboration with volunteers, the center offered various activities and support services for children, including educational programs, creative activities, and psychological counseling. Despite all the challenges, such as a full-scale war in 2022, the Ark of Peace team continued its mission by moving to Zakarpattia, Ukraine, where it continues to care for orphans. IWCM invites you to join our efforts to support the Ark of Peace Children's Home.
