I am happy to share a teaser for our upcoming project. A team of amazing people came together to make this HopeRaising Expedition possible. We are actively looking for broadcasters, sponsors of the ride and the film and strategic partners! Please share away so it lands in the right places to make this expedition a success. It’s a bike ride from Krakow to Kyiv by our amazing Jakob, a veteran, an amputee and one of the most courageous and resilient humans I know. A bike ride for peace, freedom and raising hope for our heroes! Honoured and humbled to be a part of your team, Jakob Kepka

Сьогодні Україна святкує день воєнного журналіста! Зі святом, шановні колегі! Наша зброя - це наші історіїб статті, сюжети, фільми!
Ми цивільні, деякі з нас ніколи не уявляли, що будемо робити те, що робимо зараз! В іншому житті я - кінорежисер, мати і письменниця. Я люблю малювати, акварель - мої улюблені фарби, мене захоплює небо, як вдень, так і вночі, у мене є надздібність – я пам’ятаю колір очей кожної людини, яку коли-небудь зустрічала. У іншому житті я лагідна, кумедна, я люблю гарні жарти та смачну кави. Кемпінг, піші прогулянки, пляжі, океан, мушлі, морське скло.... цуценят, кошенят... і о! сукні, усіх видів і кольорів! Але у професійному житті я зберігаю бронежилет і шолом у своїй шафі, біля своїх суконь, я не з чуток знаю звуки пострілів, як тремтить земля, коли літаки кидають авіабомби, як обережно ступати по доріжці, шириною лише крок у замінованому полі, я знаю, як пахне війна, я знаю, як пахне земля в окопі, я плачу океани після кожного завдання. Я займаюся дихальною йогою, і так гублюся у тому диханні, що здається, що я дихаю за всіх них, як за тих, хто може дихати, так і за тих, хто більше ніколи не вже не зможе... З Днем військового журналіста, Україно! Ми стоїмо поруч із нашими побратимами на передовій, але наша зброя – камера та олівець! Нехай вона завжди пронизує правдою та співчуттям! Alexandr Usenko

Today Ukraine celebrates the Day of the military journalists. Hail to all my fellow bravehearts who`s weapon is storytelling! We are civilians, some of us never imagined doing what we are doing right now! In my other life I am a filmmaker, a mother and a writer. I love painting, watercolours is medium of choice, I get captivated by the sky, both day and night, I have a superpower - I remember eye colour of each human I ever met. In my other life I am softspoken and funny, love myself a good joke and a good cup of coffee. Camping, hiking, beaches, ocean, shells, sea glass.... puppies, kittens...and oh dresses, all kinds and colours! But in my work life I keep a bulletproof vest and a helmet in my closet, right next to my dresses, I know first hand the sounds of gunfire, how the land shakes when planes throw air bombs, how to carefully step on a path that is only a footstep wide in a mine infested field, I know how the war smells, I know the smell of earth in a trench, I cry oceans after every assignment. I do breath yoga and get so overwhelmed and lost in it that it feels I am breathing for all of them, both those who can breathe and those who will never breathe again. Happy military journalists day, Ukraine! We stand right next to our brothers in arms on the frontlines, but our weapon is storytelling! May it always pierce with truth and compassion!

Mala Tokmachka, Ukraine. Faces of the War. I feel my heart is like one of those buildings with a hole in the middle made by a ruzzian missiles with a carpet dangling in the middle like in one of the photos below. There is no electricity, no running water. The soil around the houses and their very souls are scorched by Grads and air bombs. The zero ground is just few minutes drive away. We went there to do the Needs Assesment of the villages on the ground zero. I came back to Canada forever changed. The ammount of despair, sadness, grief and pain I saw in their eyes and faces, the amount of hope and kindness in their smiles changed me forever.
Luydmila is disabled from childhood, she uses crouches to walk. Victor has only one wish for her to outlive him. They list their son due to the war and he can’t imagine taking one more loss. So the only thing he needs is for her to be healthy and outlive him. Luydmila needs an all terrain wheel chair. There are no roads left in the village due to constant bombing and shelling, only messy dirt with huge craters from bombs. Having a wheelchair will allow her to visit the neighbors and see people. I hope and pray we find the way to help with the individual needs of these brave people who say, they are staying there because they are holding the line…
