“She is Waiting” is a nationwide project created to support women who are waiting for the return of their loved ones from captivity. In these challenging times, as Ukraine faces difficult trials, the project has become a symbol of hope, faith, and the courage of Ukrainian women. The initiator and active participant of the project in Vinnytsia is Lyudmyla Stanislavenko, the founder of our charitable foundation.
Purpose and Significance of the Project
The project is dedicated to Ukraine’s National Flag Day, and its primary goal is not only to draw attention to those waiting for their loved ones to return from captivity but also to provide moral support to women during this difficult period. By wrapping themselves in the blue-and-yellow flag, each participant of the project conveys a message of faith in victory and the return of their loved ones.
Importance of the Project for Society
The war has left many women in a constant state of waiting. Their husbands, brothers, sons, or daughters are missing or have been captured, and each day of waiting becomes a painful challenge. The “She is Waiting” project has become a bridge between the families of military personnel and the entire Ukrainian society, showing that these women are not alone in their suffering – all of Ukraine stands with them.
The Power of Hope under the Blue-and-Yellow Flag
In this project, the Ukrainian flag symbolizes unity, hope, and resilience. Every woman’s story, as she wraps herself in the flag, serves as a reminder to the entire country that behind every soldier stands a family that continues to believe in their return. The project carries an essential mission – to uplift those who are waiting and to raise awareness of the plight of Ukrainian defenders held in captivity.
Feedback and Support
The “She is Waiting” project has received widespread support from society. Thanks to the active involvement of local businesses, civic leaders, and activists, the stories of these women have become known across the country. Special thanks to Nica Nicaleo for her idea and for bringing people together for this vital initiative.
