Project Overview

In April 2022, Dmytro, Alex, Victoria and Daria travelled from Kyiv to the liberated Chernihiv region. They wanted to take action, clear away rubble and help rebuild the villages. To do this, they founded REPAIR TOGETHER. Since then, over 2,000 volunteers have helped to clean up and rebuild – accompanied by local rave DJs. We now want to support REPAIR TOGETHER to rebuild a cultural centre in the village of Ivanivka in the Chernihiv region.

Libereco – Partnership for Human Rights is active in Belarus and Ukraine. We've been working with local partners to provide humanitarian aid in eastern Ukraine since 2014.

Thanks to this long-standing commitment, we were able to respond immediately after the Russian invasion on 24 February 2022 and begin a large-scale support programme. As part of this, Libereco now supports the initiative REPAIR TOGETHER to rebuild destroyed homes.

Libereco is recognised as a non-profit organisation in Switzerland, Germany and the Netherlands and provides all donors with a donation receipt.
Cultural Centre Ukraine
REPAIR TOGETHER was founded in April 2022 by Ukrainian activists and artists after large areas around Kyiv and Chernihiv had been liberated. They combine clean-ups and reconstruction with raves to give the helpers a break from the daily routine of war.

REPAIR TOGETHER is now supporting 16 villages in the Chernihiv region to rebuild their homes. This has included clearing rubble from 160 homes and reconstucting 20. They are currently completely rebuilding another 17 homes with professional support. Over 2,000 people have already begun volunteering with REPAIR TOGETHER.

REPAIR TOGETHER consulted the local community for direction on their next steps. The residents asked for the cultural centre in Ivanivka to be their priority so that it becomes the centre of the community once again.

Libereco supports the Ukrainian initiative REPAIR TOGETHER to reconstruct a cultural centre in Ivanivka in the Chernihiv region. The cultural centre is a regionally significant space for social life, music and the arts.

REPAIR TOGETHER is using the winter months to plan the construction project and purchase building materials. Libereco is supporting REPAIR TOGETHER with fundraising for the project.

Do your bit to support this initiative. Help us start the rebuild (and plug in the DJ decks) this spring.

"It is great to create something with the people of REPAIR TOGETHER that points to the future and a normality after the war. To me, it is important to support Ukraine in an uncomplicated and direct way – which I can do through this project."

"The destruction in Ukraine is immense. But the people on the ground are not giving up. Organisations like REPAIR TOGETHER are leading the way in rebuilding destroyed houses. We can effectively support this work and send a strong message of solidarity to the people in Ukraine."

"I find it important that REPAIR TOGETHER enables young people to get involved in rebuilding destroyed infrastructure with innovative "clean-up raves". Their hands-on initiative for Ukrainian civilians is very worthy of support."
