MAMA JANE FOUNDATION

When Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, it didn’t just attack cities — it shattered childhoods. Over 704 children were killed, over 2513 injured, and hundreds of thousands kidnapped, silenced, and scarred. Out of this darkness, Mama Jane Foundation was born. 

What began as a grassroots relief effort has grown into a bold civil society force — protecting Ukraine’s children, advocating on the global stage, and helping families rebuild their lives with dignity.

Our Vision
Every child harmed by Russia’s aggression deserves justice, healing, and a safe future.

Our Mission
We stand with every child harmed by Russia’s war — through legal aid, trauma care, reintegration, and relentless advocacy. As communicators, strategists, and changemakers, we don’t just support the cause — we build the pressure, partnerships, and systems to protect children and make justice impossible to ignore.
