The OpenDoorUkraine.nl team was honoured to take part in the key handover ceremony for the new homeowners in a village specially built for internally displaced persons affected by the war. Director of the ODU office Olena Tsybenko, our partners from the Netherlands, in particular Daan Hartge from Rawblox, as well as our friends from the Dutch Embassy, represented by Deputy Ambassador Esselien van Eerten, joined philanthropist Dell loy Hansen at this official ceremony to hand over the keys to 21 more families who lost their homes due to the war in the new Hansen Town in Tarasivka, Kyiv region.
The ceremony included not only the handing over of keys but also the symbolic planting of tulips, flowers that symbolise hope, renewal and new life. Today, more than 300 IDPs, including 104 children, have moved in. This is only the beginning of a large project, as a total of 432 different types of housing will be built: houses with garages, two- and three-bedroom apartments, including inclusive housing for people with limited mobility.
Together, we are not only building safe and comfortable homes for Ukrainians, but also continuing to support European standards in construction. We are sincerely grateful to the local community for the invitation and the opportunity to be a part of this significant initiative. Like Dell loy Hansen, we share the goal of providing every family with decent housing, creating comfortable and safe living conditions.
This event is yet another proof that together, through joint efforts, we can change lives for the better and secure the future for those in need.
