Berlin, 05 February 2025 – Be an Angel e.V., the global non-profit organization dedicated to direct refugee aid and humanitarian work, continues its commitment to impactful partnerships. We are proud to support the ongoing collaboration between Ukrainian fashion house LITKOVSKA and British photographer Nick Knight, uniting fashion and humanitarian support in a unique way. The resulting capsule collection aims to raise awareness and provide concrete assistance to children affected by the war in Ukraine.
As of February 5, the collection is available in selected stores and online.
Since 2015, Be an Angel e.V. has established itself as a reliable player in the creative industry, proving through numerous partnerships that fashion can be a platform for social change. This time, it was our initiative, represented by team member Holger Homann, that brought Lilia Litkovska and Nick Knight together to create a collection with deep significance.
Flowers symbolize peace, comfort, and hope. Even in the most difficult times, when they grow through rubble or on battlefields, they remind us of the power of nature and renewal. This collection is meant not only to support children in Ukraine but also to touch the hearts of people worldwide.”

I reject violence and brutality in all forms. If my work in this collaboration can help raise awareness of suffering and bring even a small measure of hope to those affected, I will be deeply grateful.”

The fashion industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation that goes beyond mere aesthetic statements. In a time of global crises, it is increasingly using its reach to highlight humanitarian causes. The collaboration between LITKOVSKA and Nick Knight is a prime example of how creativity can be used as a tool for awareness and support.
Be an Angel e.V. stands for efficient and direct aid. Unlike large organizations, where administrative costs often consume a high percentage of donations, only 11% of our funds go toward administrative expenses. This ensures that the majority of resources directly benefit those in need. Since the war in Ukraine began, our focus has been on immediate relief, evacuations from conflict zones, and long-term rebuilding support. Over 23,500 people have already been evacuated, and more than 4,800 tons of essential aid supplies have been delivered to Ukraine.
During these difficult times, Be an Angel e.V. has received strong support from the creative industry. The fact that, as an NGO, we were able to initiate this collaboration between Nick Knight, an iconic artist, and LITKOVSKA, which continues to create extraordinary fashion despite the challenges, fills us with pride. This partnership proves that art and fashion can bring comfort and hope.”

The LITKOVSKA x Nick Knight capsule collection is titled “Жнива” (Zhynyva), the Ukrainian word for “Harvest,”and carries the slogan “Flowers Know Better.” It is part of LITKOVSKA’s Spring-Summer 2025 collection and was recently presented at Paris Fashion Week. While the collection showcases the artistic signatures of Lilia Litkovska and Nick Knight, its core mission is humanitarian:
All proceeds from the collection will be donated to City of Goodness, a Ukrainian humanitarian initiative that provides shelter, psychological care, and support to women and children affected by war. City of Goodness is Ukraine’s largest shelter of its kind, offering comprehensive social services to protect women and children from homelessness, poverty, or violence. Its mission is to keep children with their mothers and give hope to those facing difficult life circumstances. In addition to helping people, the organization also provides a safe haven for elderly women and animals. This partnership transforms fashion into a force for good, offering real aid to those who need it most.
Be an Angel e.V. remains committed to building bridges through creative and impactful partnerships, demonstrating that humanitarian values combined with artistic expression can drive meaningful change. The collaboration between LITKOVSKA and Nick Knight aims not only to generate donations but also to inspire others to use their platforms for good.
