Meet 10-year-old Sonya from Kharkiv, Ukraine.
Shortly after the war began a year ago, Sonya and her family sought shelter from immediate gunfire and shelling in a metro station that was repurposed by UNICEF as a safe space for children and families. |

| Today, Sonya is far from home.
After some time in the Kharkiv metro station, her family relocated to Spain. Sonya is grateful to be with her family in a place that has a kitchen for her grandma to cook in and beds to sleep in, a place that they can call home, at least for now. Sonya says of her new living situation: “My dream is the end of the war. I want to go back home so much.” Safety is critically important, but there’s no place like home. |
|
| Seeing Sonya settle into safety with her family is a gift like no other. This is why UNICEF works tirelessly to help kids like Sonya survive the traumatic experience of war and displacement — so they can have a future where they can thrive. A year later, the war continues and there are more and more children who still need your support in Ukraine and around the world.
