![“In early 2022, I received a poignant letter from my friend Maksymvk. He was a retired Ukrainian soldier I had met at a conference. His son was playing in a junior ice hockey league when the Russia-Ukraine war suddenly broke out.
With no contact and little hope, Maksymvk rejoined the army in a desperate search for his son. Our contact ended abruptly as he left his ‘last letter’ to me – I couldn’t reach him again. But that ‘last letter’ was the catalyst for something much bigger.
Moved by Maksymvk's story, I founded ESpero (@esperoeip) with my friend Brendan Hendrata, a science research advocate. Meaning ‘hope’ in Spanish, ESpero was initially dedicated to helping war refugees by creating art pieces that share their stories and preserve their cultures.
One of the art pieces that touched me the most was an AI-generated painting of a mother and her two children. In the picture, they can be seen dragging their suitcases on the highway. They are fleeing from Ukraine in search of safety in another country.
To better understand the plight of Ukrainian refugees and how ESpero could impact them, I spent the summer of 2022 volunteering with Doctors Without Borders (@doctorswithoutborders) in Norway. What I witnessed was many heart-wrenching stories, just like Maksymvk’s.
But I also saw the inspiring efforts of selfless individuals who had left lucrative careers to aid refugees firsthand in worn-down shelters. For a young student like me, I learnt so much, including how an NGO like Doctors Without Borders operates.
That internship experience in Norway was truly valuable because we also plan to operate ESpero as a non-profit. And while it started off as a small project between Brendan and I, more people started learning about what we do. Now, ESpero is an actual organisation.
Over 120 volunteers have joined ESpero, and we currently have branches in Canada, the US and Southeast Asia. Our mission has expanded to include various areas of human rights violations, and our volunteers have provided over $83,000 in pro bono services.
