How the Andriy Matyukha Foundation supports veterans, humanitarian projects and helps Ukrainian hospitals
3 October 17:58
The Andriy Matyukha Foundation is developing its own charitable initiatives. The main efforts are aimed at helping veterans and the military, hospitals, and supporting the development of prosthetics. At the same time, the organization supports international projects that strengthen Ukraine’s cooperation with other countries.
“E-Prosthesis” received support from the Andriy Matyukha Foundation: help after amputations becomes more affordable
“E-Prosthesis“ has become one of the main projects supported by philanthropists, including Andriy Matyukha and his Foundation. The online platform was created to make the process of getting a prosthesis easier. It combines consultations, equipment selection, fundraising, and rehabilitation stages. Here, users can find a clinic, get expert advice and join support programs.
Development of the service began in 2024 with a pilot version that included a knowledge base, website, and Telegram bot. The next stage will be the launch of a full-fledged application with access to government services and partner funds.
The project is based on modern technologies and the principles of inclusiveness. The chatbot uses artificial intelligence to answer questions in a natural way. The knowledge base is constantly updated, and the team creates new materials based on user feedback. Andriy Matyukha emphasizes that the system should remain effective even after the war ends.
In the near future, the E-Prosthesis team plans to attract at least 5 thousand users. At least half of them will be able to go all the way from the first consultation to the installation of the prosthesis with full support.
Andriy Matyukha Foundation supports the program “Protection of Ukrenergo’s repairmen”
Theprogram “Protection of Ukrenergo’s repairmen” was created to train technicians and rapid response teams to provide first aid in dangerous situations. It is planned to hold 75 one-day trainings for 1,500 power engineers. Participants will learn how to stop bleeding, use turnstiles, perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation and determine the condition of victims.
Since the start of the full-scale war, Ukraine’s power grid has been hit daily: more than 63,000 facilities have been damaged, at least 160 power workers have been killed and more than 300 others injured. Despite the high risk of shelling, repairmen are forced to go to power lines and substations. That is why knowledge of first aid is critical to their safety.
The Foundation, founded by Andriy Matyukha, supported this project because its main goal is to reduce losses and save the lives of people who work in extremely dangerous conditions every day.
Modern tools for the children’s hospital from the Andriy Matyukha Foundation
One of the Foundation’s activities is to support medical institutions. In 2025, Ligasure Mariland and Ligasure Exact instruments were donated to the Emergency Surgery Department of Okhmatdyt. Thanks to a special nano-coating, they help surgeons perform both open and laparoscopic surgeries.
The children’s hospital performs about 800 surgeries every year, where such equipment is extremely necessary. In a few months after receiving the new instruments, doctors have already performed more than 60 successful interventions. Andriy Matyukha notes that such initiatives have a real impact on the quality of medical care for children.
Earlier, with the Foundation’s assistance, Ohmatdyt received the latest Thompson system for open surgeries. The surgeons have performed more than a hundred interventions with its help and claim that this complex has become indispensable in their daily work.
Buy a Lot initiative: sports and charity for children
The Andriy Matyukha Foundation supported the Buy a Lot charity auction organized by the Dynamo football club, the Ukrainian journalists’ team and the News Center news agency. The main goal of this initiative is to build an inclusive sports ground in Zhytomyr on the basis of a center for rehabilitation and palliative care for children.
Andriy Matyukha believes that sport combined with charity creates a special value. This alliance benefits not only the participants of the events, but also children who need support and conditions for development.
Origami for Ukraine: The power of art to support the Ukrainian military
The Andriy Matyukha Foundation supported the Origami for Ukraine initiative, which in the spring of 2025 decorated the facade of the Kyiv Museum with five thousand metallized birds. The author of the installation is Belgian designer Charles Kaysin, and Ukrainian schoolchildren helped create it.
The project aims to raise funds to help wounded soldiers. To date, more than 50 thousand euros have been raised, which will be transferred to the Kyiv rehabilitation center.
Systematic work of the Andriy Matyukha Foundation with opportunities for the future
Andrey Matyukha believes that real help should be the basis for the future, because this is the only way to count on a long-term result. Therefore, every initiative implemented by the Foundation is aimed at solving urgent problems and creating new approaches to support.
Since its inception, the Andriy Matyukha Foundation has focused on key areas: assistance, rehabilitation and return of veterans to public life, projects to strengthen defense capabilities, humanitarian programs in medicine, science, culture and education. The team is not going to slow down.
