After years of volunteering in Africa, Ms Lam Bao Yan and her husband Rudy Taslim, both 38, made their wills - just in case - and flew to Europe to help Ukrainian war survivors.

“自2022年俄乌战争爆发以来，陈镇升和林宝燕夫妇几乎每隔10周，便前往乌克兰展开人道援助工作”

“On his second trip to Ukraine in August, architect Rudy Taslim, 38, almost wandered into a forest of pine trees, before he was yanked by his collar to a halt by his local guide.”

Ar. Rudy Taslim, founder of Genesis Architects, shares his motivation for his projects in Africa”

“From the Maldives to Congo, architect Rudy Taslim believes in creating beautiful spaces for local communities.”

"Naturally, as an architect, I gravitated towards the idea of building for marginalised communities”

“Covid-19: A catalyst for famine and murder, but also an opportunity to save lives”

“Couple who spends days worshipping God while waiting on His plans for their ministries”

“Rudy Taslim’s design strength lies in his multi-disciplinary approach to his projects and his dedication to helping the marginalised communities around the world.”

“我们亲眼目睹乌克兰人所受的苦难，因此无法放任不管，希望能在这个黑暗时期为他们带来一线曙光。”

Beyond putting roofs over people's heads, the couple has two other humanitarian projects in the country - bringing in generators for energy and helping expectant mothers who have lost their husbands or homes to war.

俄乌战争爆发两个月后，林宝燕先是去德国帮助乌克兰难民。了解到最需要帮助的人仍留在乌克兰境内，她决定亲自去乌克兰看看。
