The Olena Zelenska foundation has published gratitude to Leonardo Dicaprio for helping Ukrainian families. This is not the first time the actor donates funds to support Ukraine. This contribution will help several children from family-type orphanages at once. Thanks to the Zelenska foundation and the people who take care of Ukrainian children, they do not know what orphanhood is. In their new, often temporary, families, children are provided with access to education, medicine, and social protection. And after the war, they will see their parents again.
"It is the story of Vika from the Rodnykh family, who was diagnosed with a mental disorder. Together with 7 siblings, she went through the occupation of Kherson, as well as evacuation under the muzzle of tanks and constant shelling. It is the story of 8 children from the Oleshko family-type orphanage, whose house was ruined in the war and whose father is defending Ukraine on the front lines. It is the story of 3-year-old Violeta from the Khanadeevs family, now living in a relatively safe Kyiv region. Almost 9 years ago, her parents faced Russian aggression in Donetsk for the first time, forcing them to leave their home and never come back," Olena Zelenska foundation.
At the beginning of the war, dicaprio donated $10 million to support the Ukrainian army.
