Over two million people have fled Ukraine since late February, including 1.2 million into Poland. The United Nations has predicted that 4 million Ukrainians may become refugees as a result of the conflict.
Help us to support families fleeing Ukraine into Poland; working with our local partners we’ll be providing food, blankets, and essential hygiene items to some of the most vulnerable families who have fled the attacks in Ukraine.
We’ll also be providing overnight shelter to those arriving at the border.

Hundreds of thousands of people have fled to Lviv in western Ukraine, around 40 miles from Poland’s border, putting a huge strain on existing resources in the city. The city’s mayor said it had reached its capacity to help displaced people.

Provide warmth, nutrition, and hygiene products
Your support is essential in helping us to save lives. Temperatures on the border reach minus 10 degrees at night, and often don’t rise above 0 degrees in the day.
Ukrainians – mostly women and children - are fleeing miles on foot, catching crowded trains, and reaching the borders by any means necessary. They bring with them only what they can carry in backpacks.
Your donations will help us to provide portable accessible food – as well as warm blankets and hygiene items.
Please help us to save lives in Ukraine.
