On the 24th of February 2022, Russia launched a military offensive into Ukraine, causing civilian casualties and destroying the country’s infrastructure. More than a quarter of the population has been forced to flee their homes. In the first few weeks, more than 4.3 million refugees fled Ukraine, and a second as many were internally displaced. It is the fastest growing refugee crisis since World War II.
We cannot be indifferent to the suffering of our neighbours – we immediately set out to help!

We are heading back to the border! The situation is getting complicated again. Yesterday the queue to the crossing point in Kroscienko stretched for many kilometres once again. Our contacts at other crossings also observed increased traffic. At least 6 people died of cold while waiting to cross. The coming nights will be very cold. We expect up to 11 degrees below zero. Thousands of people once again are in need of warmth.
Stay with us, follow our coverage, share posts and support our fundraiser to “Help Ukraine!” This way, you can generate even more heat with us and do good work with us at the border!
The border zone on the Ukrainian side is not the only area where we operate. Every day, we send supplies further into the country. Our aid has already reached Lviv and Kiev. A supply of warm clothes and shoes is about to leave for Rovno.
In the past few days we also assisted the Western Railway Station by setting up a complete system for managing the refugees’ needs, which will be put into operation any minute now, under the watchful eye of Ada Porowska of the Camillian Mission for Social Assistance.
In a few days we will also tell you about other ideas. We are currently working on development projects for people who have already moved to Poland and need to find their feet in a completely unknown, foreign reality.

To our questions about estimated casualty numbers, the most common answer is: “A lot! On both sides!”. Exactly how many no one knows, because getting aid to the occupied territories is like asking the aggressor for an open day in his trenches. 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 […]
