How to Get Help from the Angels of Freedom Foundation
Who Can Apply
The Angels of Freedom Foundation helps kindergartens, schools, and communities to equip safe underground shelters so that the educational process can continue during air raid alerts.
We provide assistance only to public and municipal educational institutions.
We do not provide financial assistance to private individuals or families.
However, applications from private individuals are considered if they concern a kindergarten or school (for example, from parents who want to involve the Foundation in equipping the underground shelter at the institution where their children study).
We especially value applications from parent associations and teaching staff. The best results are achieved when the Foundation and the community work together in synergy.

Describe the situation, provide information about the institution, and leave your contact details.
