Glinka's first charity project began in 1999, when she opened the first public hospice in Kiev, Ukraine. She later founded the VALE Hospice International fund based in the USA and served as a board member of the Vera Hospice Charity Fund in Moscow. In 2007 she founded a humanitarian NGO Spravedlivaya Pomoshch (in English, "Fair Aid" or "Fair Help").

With the outbreak of the War in Donbass Glinka became involved with evacuating sick and injured children from territory held by pro-Russian separatists. She moved them to hospitals in Moscow or Saint Petersburg, where they could receive medical care . It has been estimated that she travelled more than 20 times into conflict zones, and saved about 500 children. Children were moved across the state border without permission from authorities, leading to accusations of child abduction from Ukrainian government officials.
