What might seem like a peaceful, ordinary day in this video is truly a gift for many in Ukraine. For a long time, days for these residents meant hiding in basements from explosions, clearing shrapnel from their yards, and enduring the hardships brought by Russian occupants.

It's hard to believe that Senior Chudo Village has been a home for so many senior war victims for a whole year now. Today, it has blossomed into Ukraine's first-of-its-kind senior living community, offering not just shelter, but a fresh start for those who lost everything due to the war.

The construction of Senior Chudo Village is almost complete, and we are thrilled to welcome another 200 elderly individuals into our big family at Hansen Ukrainian Mission.

During the May trip to Ukraine, our founder, Dell Loy Hansen, and the US team had a chance to be a part of the grand opening of the first chicken coop in Senior Chudo Village.
