Help War Survivors
Rebuild Their Futures
Helping War Victims is a Lithuanian public charity founded in 2022 in response to the full-scale war in Ukraine. Your secure donation supports people whose lives have been shattered by war — from emergency relief and medical support to the development of long-term recovery programs like VR-based therapy and digital education for war-affected youth and veterans.
How our self-funding model works
Helping War Victims combines humanitarian work with a creative, self-sustaining funding model. At the heart of this model is Paradox Nova — a docu-futuristic graphic novel trilogy inspired by real stories from people who lived through the 2022 war in Ukraine, reimagined as an interplanetary invasion. Once Paradox Nova is published and begins generating sales, our intention is to direct 100% of its net profits to fund our programs in VR-therapy, future-skills education, and other long-term support for war-affected communities.
Real stories, transformed:
Composite characters and a sci-fi setting protect real people while keeping their experiences at the core.
From pages to programs:
Net profits from the graphic novel are planned to power VR-based pain and trauma relief and IT-education initiatives.
Beyond one-off donations:
We aim to build a sustainable engine that supports survivors for years, not weeks.
Why your support matters for people living after war
War does not end when the shooting stops. Families face displacement, loss of income, untreated injuries, and long-term trauma. Since 2022, our team has worked around large-scale aid operations together with partners — including deliveries of essential supplies, support for safe-water access, and co-funded surgeries — while designing programs that focus on recovery, not only survival.
Emergency relief and essentials
Food, hygiene items, blankets, and other essentials for families in crisis zones and host communities.
Safe water and basic health
Support for water filters and safe-water access where infrastructure has been damaged or overloaded.
Medical support with partners
Co-funded surgeries, equipment, and coordinated referrals through partner hospitals and clinics.
From injury to independence
Rehabilitation initiatives that help people regain mobility and dignity after conflict-related injury.
Education and future-skills
Long-term recovery requires skills and opportunity. We are preparing digital-skills programs for war-affected youth and veterans.
Documented results
We document aid operations, deliveries, and funded interventions so donors can see clear, concrete outcomes over time.

Paradox Nova: docu-futuristic graphic novel
Paradox Nova is a graphic novel trilogy built on real stories from people affected by the 2022 war in Ukraine, reimagined as an interplanetary invasion. Once published, it is intended to direct 100% of its net profits to VR-therapy, IT-education, and other programs of Helping War Victims.
VR Therapy: from war trauma to new experiences
We are designing a VR-based program to support war-affected people living with phantom limb pain and trauma-related symptoms. The goal is to create a trauma-informed VR-therapy pathway that complements clinical care and helps participants reclaim parts of their lives that war has taken away.
