Escaping war zones and suddenly trying to fit into a new society is really tough, especially for disabled people.

“We scoop up the sea with a cup, and it is impossible to scoop it out.
But if you see in every cup the people, it doesn't look so pointless anymore.”

Zhanna Dryha, evacuation coordinator

Our work and values

At Sunflower Care e.V., we recognize the profound challenges faced by the disabled, neurodivergent, chronically ill, and war-injured individuals amidst the Ukrainian conflict. Many find evacuation daunting, if not impossible. Since the onset of the Russian invasion, our unwavering mission has been to support these vulnerable groups and their caregivers, both within Ukraine and as they integrate elsewhere.

  • Find barrier-free housing for urgent medical needs & disabilities.
  • Aid with transport costs for those unable to access public transit.
  • Address individual accommodation & medical needs.

Dedicated Team

We are a group of allies. Some of us are from Ukraine. Some of us are from russia. Some of us are from Germany. Some of us are queer, disabled, chronically ill and neurodivergent. Some of us are non-disabled and neurotypical. Some of us are white and some of us are indigenous. We are against russian war and aware how this war is destroying disabled lives. We call for solidarity with disabled, chronically ill, neurodivergent and injured persons from and in Ukraine. This solidarity should mean anti-ableist work. We call on all organisations and civil society to ensure the protection and safety of disabled refugees from Ukraine in Germany and to make all services accessible for them.
Lets start with the first step

Join us, we always in dire need for
translators, coordinators and volunteers!
