How Angels for Ukraine Helped Color CosmoCamp 2025

From June 30 to July 19, CosmoCamp 2025 united 92 children with diverse backgrounds and needs. Participants included children with disabilities who cannot attend school due to health conditions, their siblings, children with palliative status, those who lost one or both parents in the war, families forced to relocate, and children under guardianship.

See with your Heart organizes this amazing initiative every summer. The current year marked the camp’s first collaboration with the Olena Zelenska Foundation, whose support amplified the camp’s impact and reach.

A Gift of Creative Freedom

Angels for Ukraine is honored to have donated 3,000 vibrant pencils to See with your Heart, the organization behind CosmoCamp. These pencils fueled imagination across:

  • 105 hands-on workshops
  • Candle-making and décor crafting sessions
  • Letter-writing to Ukrainian defenders
  • The enchanting CosmoFair

Each pencil became more than a drawing tool—it was a beacon of hope, empowering children to express themselves freely and color their own worlds.

Three Weeks of Transformation

Over twenty days, the camp’s curators, helpers, and volunteers fostered a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment. Daily activities included creative workshops, movement sessions, games, and themed parties—providing a barrier-free space where every child could simply be a child.

Gratitude and Next Steps

We extend our heartfelt thanks to See with your Heart and every volunteer who made CosmoCamp 2025 unforgettable. Your generosity has painted brighter futures for these children.

Angels for Ukraine admires the merciful donation of 30,000 colorful pencils by the Swiss company Caran d’Ache S.A. Stay tuned for more news about their distribution. 

We remain committed to bringing creative and transformative experiences to children affected by the war. Together, we can continue to color lives with hope and possibility.
