Since the escalation of the war in February 2022, until mid-October 2024, nearly 6.8 million refugees4 from Ukraine have been recorded – 92 per cent of them in Europe. Inside Ukraine, an estimated 3.6 million people5 remain internally displaced as of October 2024.
Among the most vulnerable are also an estimated 12.6 million as of March 2025 people who were not displaced from their homes but who have been directly affected by the war – they have been wounded, their homes have been destroyed, their family members died.
Civilian infrastructure, such as power grids, water supply networks. hospitals transportation infrastructure, have been targeted by the daily missile attacks, severely disrupting people’s lives across the whole country, and particularly in the East.

“Will you clothe 2,500 children from Ukraine?” – We will !
We are just finishing the distribution of warm clothes and shoes for Ukrainian children from dozens of reception points all over Poland. A few weeks ago, identifying the needs of the youngest Ukrainian visitors, we heard that this is exactly what they were missing. The wardrobe of many of the kids still only counted a few pieces of clothing, hurriedly packed while fleeing the bombed estates.
Katya doesn’t even have the head to think about where to look for support and dress her children warmly. All she can think about is her brother, who a few days ago, while fighting on the front line in Bachmut, stepped on a Russian mine. He survived, but his condition is serious.
Each of our charges has difficult memories behind them. We will not solve all their problems, but we can make things easier for them. The Good Factory is in Puławy, Lublin today, and in a moment we will be in Warsaw and Szczecin. The aid was funded by the American organisation Mercy Corps, and the Good Factory team has once again proved that nothing is impossible by responding to the individual needs of almost 2,500 children.
We really rose to the challenge of tailoring the aid to provide everyone with shoes and clothes in their size. We did it!

On the 11th of June, the Russians fired on a boat with civilians […]

What if this was your neighbourhood? If, between the billowing smoke, you spotted the ruins of the grocery store where you had shopped since you were a child? To which your mother would still send you with a list written in pencil on a piece of paper so you wouldn’t forget anything? Bachmut had more […]
