Restoring people. Strengthening communities.

Strength that restores opportunity

The Kozak Mamai Foundation unites people, businesses and international partners to restore human potential and strengthen Ukraine’s resilience.

About us

From urgent help today to capacity tomorrow

The Kozak Mamai Foundation was established in Ukraine in 2022 as a platform that brings resources, professional expertise and partnerships together to restore people and communities affected by the war.

We work where one-off assistance is not enough. From humanitarian response, we move towards comprehensive programmes in rehabilitation, child development, infrastructure recovery and renewed economic independence.

Our promiseTo turn assistance into the ability to act independently again.

Mission

To help people and communities not only overcome the consequences of war, but also restore their capacity to act, develop and shape the future.

Vision

A Ukraine of strong people and resilient communities, where support becomes opportunity and partnership creates lasting change.

Our approach

We combine rapid response with systemic recovery programmes, transparent delivery and measurable social impact.

A personal message

A responsibility we share

The Foundation is built on the personal responsibility of its leadership for decisions, partnerships and the results of every programme.

For us, charity is not an isolated good deed. It is a responsibility for the Ukraine that will emerge from these trials. The Kozak Mamai Foundation was created to unite people, businesses and international partners around solutions that restore dignity, capability and opportunity. We want every act of support to become not the end of a story, but the beginning of a new chapter for a person or a community.

Our daily work begins with a verified need and ends with a concrete result. We design programmes so that partners understand their purpose, budget and expected impact, while recipients experience respect and genuine support. From humanitarian response to complex recovery projects, people remain at the centre of every decision.
