2024 has been a year of unforgettable emotions and international experiences. The trips organized by the Ukrainian Football Association and the “Stand of Heroes” to the European Championship match became the brightest event of 2024.

150 family representatives attended all three matches of the national team of Ukraine at Euro 2024 in Germany,supporting our team in the stands along with thousands of fans. In addition to watching matches, families had the opportunity to see famous German cities and experience the atmosphere of a real football holiday, which happens every four years.

At the end of Euro 2024, the goalkeeper of the national team of Ukraine Anatoly Trubin presented his award to the Lion of the Match among the fans and handed 77,000 hryvnias “Tribune of Heroes” after the auction.

It was the trip to Euro 2024 that made the Football Family an international community, and the stories of the families of the deceased heroes attracted the attention of the world's top media - The Times, Le Parisien, MSN, Liberation, So foot, etc. The families spoke about the lives of their relatives who died defending Ukraine, and raised the problems faced by families who lost loved ones. These interviews have become an important voice reminding the world: the war continues, and Ukrainians continue to fight every day for their right to life, freedom and the future.

Every mention of the Foundation's activities, every story told helps not only to honor the memory of the dead, but also to attract new partners who are committed to supporting our community during this difficult time.
