Daria Khrystenko’s life changed forever when the war in Ukraine began.
On 24 February 2022, Daria Khrystenko woke up at 5am to go on her usual morning run. Then her phone rang.
“I woke my son up, we put my cats in their basket into the car and we left Kyiv in 20 minutes,” she reveals. “I was going to a complete unknown,” she says. “I didn’t know where to go; I didn’t have a place to stay or a job to work.” Daria also began working for CARE Poland as a translator and working on communications. She now works with organisations led by women, some of whom, like her, arrived as refugees but have now found the strength to help others.
“This last year was incredibly difficult for Ukrainian refugees but also for women all over the world. The help and assistance that the whole world has shown towards Ukrainian refugees is also incredible so I just want to take a moment to thank all the people that have helped Ukrainians.”
