Support HOPE Children of Ukraine

A charitable foundation dedicated to the mission of creating positive changes in the lives of children affected by the war in Ukraine, our foundation works on providing comprehensive support, including educational projects, personal development, psychological support, and humanitarian aid.

We believe that every child has the right to a quality education, growth, and a chance for a bright future, regardless of the trials they have endured.โ€จThe history of the Hope-Children of Ukraine project began in the spring of 2021, when Arthur Olshansky, the founder of the American IT company Klik Solutions, decided to establish a charitable initiative for Ukrainian childrenโ€”free English language courses.

Why Ukrainian children specifically? Itโ€™s simpleโ€”Arthur himself was born in Ukraine and moved to America with his parents at the age of six, where he eventually achieved significant success. His American dream came true, but his soul is always with Ukraine, and every day, as he looked at his achievements, his heart was filled with a sense of responsibility towards the children living in the country where he was born.
