Yaroslav Malko – Präsident des internationalen Dienstes Global Christian Support, Pastor und Seelsorger: Die Mission „Neues Leben“ ist ein strategischer Partner von Global Christian Support im humanitären Projekt „Wir helfen zu überleben“. Im Laufe der Jahre hat sich unsere Zusammenarbeit von einer lokalen Initiative zu einer systematischen Arbeit auf nationaler Ebene entwickelt. Heute führen wir gemeinsam humanitäre Hilfsprogramme durch, entwickeln die Hilfsinfrastruktur und beteiligen uns am Bau der Zufluchtsstätte „Neues Leben“ in der Region Poltawa – einem wichtigen Zentrum für Menschen, die sich in schwierigen Lebensumständen befinden. Unsere Partnerschaft basiert auf Vertrauen, Transparenz und einem gemeinsamen Verständnis der Mission des Dienens. Wir sind überzeugt, dass wir durch die Bündelung unserer Ressourcen und Anstrengungen die Hilfe weiter ausbauen und Hunderte von Bedürftigen in der ganzen Ukraine unterstützen können.
