Ukrainian charitable organization

Helping Ukraine's children catch up on the learning the war took away.

Millions of Ukrainian children have had their education disrupted by the full-scale war — by displacement, destroyed schools, months of online lessons and air-raid interruptions. Serply supports their educational recovery with learning materials, restored learning spaces and support for the teachers who hold classrooms together.

The problem

Learning loss is the war's quietest damage

Since February 2022, thousands of Ukrainian schools have been damaged or destroyed, and millions of children have studied online, in shelters, or not at all for long stretches. International assessments and Ukraine's own Ministry of Education point to substantial learning losses — in reading, mathematics and basic study habits — that widen the longer they go unaddressed.

The children hit hardest are in frontline-adjacent and de-occupied communities and among internally displaced families: the places with the least infrastructure and the fewest resources to recover.

Buildings will be rebuilt. Lost years of learning don't rebuild themselves — they require deliberate, sustained recovery work. That is the gap Serply exists to help close.

Accountability

New programs, open books from day one

Serply is a small organization launching new programs, and we believe credibility is earned by transparency, not by inflated claims. We will not publish impact numbers we don't have. What we publish instead:

  • Registered charitable organization in Ukraine (EDRPOU 65405954)
  • Validated by Percent / TechSoup for nonprofit status
  • A public launch plan with milestones and budgets
  • An 80 / 12 / 8 spending commitment: programs / administration / fundraising
  • Donation receipts for every gift

Founding donors and volunteers shape what these programs become. $30 assembles one learning recovery kit; $100 supports training materials for one teacher.
