Luxembourg-based non-profit organisation LUkraine asbl has launched a fundraising campaign aimed at ensuring families and children in Ukraine have access to electricity over the winter months.
LUkraine highlighted that power outages disrupt education, healthcare and everyday life across Ukraine.
Children in foster family homes need safe and warm spaces during winter, and schools and hospitals also need reliable power to continue teaching and caring, and the non-profit organisation is aiming to raise €50,000 for batteries and solar panels.
According to the association, around €2,500 equips one home, and LUkraine’s first milestone is to raise €20,000 by the end of November, which it said will equip eight homes from January 2027 onwards.
Should the funds raised through the “Keep Their Light On” campaign exceed what these homes need, the surplus will go to more homes on the waiting list or to other energy projects already under way in Ukraine.
Previous humanitarian and fundraising campaigns by the association have seen 35 charging stations supplied to 30 institutions in Ukraine, helping maintain essential services during power disruptions; €47,800 invested through the Light Up Hope campaign to provide charging stations to institutions affected by power disruptions; and a total of €1.605 million raised in 2025 in support of various humanitarian, educational and community programmes.
