🦋 Light for the House of Butterflies

August 6, 2026

Ukraine2Power donated portable power stations to the House of Butterflies, Ukraine’s largest children’s hospice, to help keep essential care running during power outages. The hospice supports seriously ill children with palliative care, rehabilitation, and a safe, loving environment.

Children arrive at the House of Butterflies seriously ill, without a family beside them and with very little hope. They have already experienced more loneliness and hardship than anyone so young should ever know.

Marta Levchenko gives them what they may never have had before: a safe home, loving support, and the knowledge that they are not alone. In 2023, she founded the House of Butterflies, Ukraine’s largest and only children’s hospice.

Here, young patients with severe and incurable illnesses receive professional palliative treatment, comfort, warmth, and human closeness. When recovery is no longer possible, the team helps them spend the time they have with dignity, surrounded by kindness.

Some are only a few months old. Many depend on round-the-clock medical supervision, oxygen support, rehabilitation, or assistance with basic daily needs. The hospice also welcomes those from frontline and formerly occupied areas, single-parent families, and children deprived of parental care.

Reliable electricity is vital in such a place. Medical equipment, lighting, communication, and essential routines must continue during power outages.

Through the Light, Delivered Home project, Ukraine2Power donated portable power stations to the City of Goodness (Місто Добра) for the hospice. The units will provide backup electricity and help its team continue their work when the grid goes down.

The initiative is part of Ukraine2Power’s broader winter response, through which we secured almost 450 portable power stations with a combined capacity of 770 kWh for people facing the greatest risks during another difficult winter.

💙 A heartfelt thank you to everyone whose support made this donation possible. Your generosity helps ensure that those who depend on constant medical attention are not left without electricity when it matters most.
