Pomichna (Ukrainian: Помічна, IPA: [pomitʃˈnɑ] ⓘ) is a city in Novoukrainka Raion, Kirovohrad Oblast, Ukraine.
The fortress of St. Elizabeth (in modern-day Kropyvnytskyi) was garrisoned by Zaporozhian Cossacks, and the village of Pomichna provided the garrison with food, thereby providing help (поміч, pomich), hence the name of the settlement "Pomichna".
During World War II, the settlement was occupied by German troops.
On March 18, 1944, Pomichna was liberated from the Nazi occupiers by the troops of the 2nd Ukrainian Front.
On May 14, 1967, by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR, Pomichna received the status of a city.
