Winter is coming and with the weakened power infrastructure, many Ukrainians will suffer this winter.

Since the fall of 2022, Jeremiah's Hope has been providing firewood to the elderly and families with young children in our village of Kolentsi, Ukraine. We have done this in an effort to provide heating during the cold winter months as most village homes are heated by wood burning stoves that double as both the families cooking and heating source. Through your generosity, we have provided firewood for the past four years and and we want to continue this blessing this fall to make sure our community has heat during the winter of 2026!

Usually, many of these widows would slowly collect little pieces of firewood, throughout the year, as they take walks in the forest on the edge of the village.

These widows are unable to purchase firewood for themselves. The cost of wood has increased from about $60 a truck in 2021 load to over to an average of $350 a truckload. Sadly, the average pension, in Ukraine, is about $50 a month. So, one truck of firewood to heat their homes would cost them a little more than 1/2 of the money that they receive in one year.

Jeremiah's Hope is committing to raise the funds to provide firewood for our neighbors. We have also asked our ministry team in Kolentsi to begin making the arrangements to order the firewood and get it delivered.

We are stepping out in faith again this fall and believing that YOU will partner with us to care for these widows this winter!

Please consider giving a gift to help us provide warmth for these widows and families with children this winter!
