AstroSandbox is a non-profit project founded in January 2020 to provide Ukrainian school students access to advanced astronomical education and form a community of astronomical learners and teachers. Our primary methods of achieving the former are online course with webinars (60 so far) on diverse astronomical topics and a well-structured multi-level archive of previous olympiads' tasks (from district to international level). We hold two study groups: one for high school and university students cooperating with the Institute of Aerospace Technologies of NTUU KPI and another for 5-9 grades with the Kvanta Mathematics and Computer Science club. For the latter, we organize the annual Astronomy Battles Tournament nationally and have a Telegram community where students and teachers can discuss space sciences-related problems. We also use this community to widespread information about astronomical opportunities and updates of AstroSandbox. We inform our readers about each upcoming competition.
We also serve as the contact point for Ukrainian educational institutions with foreign volunteers. This summer, we helped fundraise for purchasing and delivering three telescopes from Astronomy for Equity organization to Ukrainian schools. In addition, we found four universities willing to receive modern telescopes donated by the Unistellar organization.
Our plans include a Tournament of Young Astronomers and an adjustment of Astronomy Battles to the current educational situation in Ukraine.
