Bob Wouda

Board Member and Chairman. Head of Humanitarian Affairs – PR and Website Management

Resides partly in Ukraine and partly in the Netherlands.

Has been working in the humanitarian field for years, both in the Netherlands and in Ukraine.

Until 2014, his area of ​​work in Ukraine was the Lugansk region, but following the war violence there, he is now active in various other regions of Ukraine, with Kyiv as his permanent base.

Bob has come to know Ukraine as a developing country, but one where humanitarian aid is still urgently needed. Together with several colleagues in Ukraine as well as in the Netherlands, he dedicates himself to people in this country who urgently need both medical assistance and support with relief supplies, without forgetting the animals whenever possible.

Izana

Board member and first secretary

My name is Izana and I am 36 years old.

I live in the Netherlands, but I originally come from Zaporizhia in Ukraine. Although I haven't been there for a long time, it is and remains my "Home"!

I want to do everything I can to help rebuild my "home" and make it stronger, better, and more beautiful than ever. This is also the reason why I am committed to SPSN-O.

My background is broad and long; ultimately, I am most at home in "science," with an emphasis on neuroscience and humanitarianism. I possess the necessary insights into the human psyche and brain and want to use this knowledge to help make the lives of many easier.

I can do this as a board member of SPSN-O as well. In short: Ukraine can count on me, and I will never abandon my people!

Together we are strong, and I have always felt and acted this way, and will always continue to do so.

Tanya

Treasurer

My name is Tanya and I am 36 years old.

I live in Kyiv, I work in an auto parts shop and handle the administration there. I have an administrative education and would very much like to put my knowledge and experience at the service of the platform foundation. My hobbies are cooking, especially Ukrainian dishes, and of course, my Yorkshire Terrier is my sweetheart. I am unmarried and was born in a suburb of Kyiv.

Precisely because the currency (Hgrivnas) in Ukraine is different from that in other European countries, is not accepted as a means of payment outside Ukraine either, and I am accustomed to dealing with finances internationally, I will do everything in my power to keep this foundation financially healthy as well.

Anastasia

Board member and translator

I am engaged in translation and language adaptation of the foundation's materials so that information about Ukraine, its culture, traditions, humanitarian initiatives and SPSN-O activities is accessible to different audiences.

I permanently live in Ukraine and work as a Ukrainian language teacher for foreigners. I help people from different countries learn the Ukrainian language, better understand Ukrainian culture and adapt to life in Ukraine.

I believe that language is an important tool for building mutual understanding, support and strong ties between people from different countries.

In addition to professional activities, I support animal protection initiatives and help them within my capabilities.

It is important for me to contribute to the development of Ukraine, spread knowledge about it in the world and strengthen ties between Ukraine and the international community.
