Stories

Space for us at the HE Space Children's Foundation is not just a destination, it is our destiny. We believe it is for all mankind. And, it already begins on Earth, with education providing the universal tool to overcome all the meaningless artificial barriers like gender, race, cultural and social heritage. We are happy to share some of our stories.

Giving Ukrainian children a taste of space

HE Space Telecommunications System Engineer and Ukraine national Hlib Cheporniuk approached us last year with a great idea: inviting Ukrainian refugee children to Space Expo, the space museum in Noordwijk. He and his fellow volunteers expected 42 children to attend in the span of two days: 13th and 20th of January 2023. The HESCF provided a donation of 500 euros to make this visit possible.

Emergency relief Turkey

After the tragic earthquake in Turkey we were contacted by Adnan Bugdaci, working for HE Space as a Network & Communications Engineer at EUMETSAT, as the area where his family lives was badly affected. In line with our past efforts, the HE Space Children’s Foundation would like to support the children in Turkey by collaborating with a trustworthy local organisation.
