1000 Food Packages for Those in Need

For three years, Ukraine has been heroically resisting a full-scale war. Every day, cities and villages are being destroyed, thousands of people are losing their homes, and the economic crisis is worsening the problem of growing poverty. In these challenging times, providing support to those in need is crucial.

One of the most effective ways to help is through food packages. These packages not only provide essential nutrition but also enable people to prepare meals for themselves and their families. Thanks to our reliable partners and sponsors from Germany, the charitable foundation ‘House of Bread’ has successfully purchased and distributed 1,000 food packages to those who need them most.

Among the recipients are orphans and children with one parent, internally displaced persons, elderly individuals with minimal pensions, bedridden patients, and other socially vulnerable groups. Additionally, aid was provided to people living in de-occupied territories where infrastructure is destroyed, making it impossible to purchase food.

We are sincerely grateful to everyone who contributed to this project! Your support gives people hope and helps them endure these difficult times.

We have also made a short film about this initiative. You can learn more by watching the video.

Feeding refugees

The largest refugee crisis in the world in the 21st century was caused by the invasion of Russian troops into Ukraine on February 24, 2022. More than 13.1 million people were forced to flee Ukraine to other countries. Another 8 million people became internally displaced persons. Millions of people were left without a roof over their heads, jobs, and means of living. Therefore, the number of those in need has increased significantly. According to the press service of the regional military administration, there are 73,800 internally displaced people in the Zhytomyr region. Our city also actively accepts refugees from the east of Ukraine and does everything possible to help them. As of today, 120 refugees receive free lunches at our soupkitchens. Some people come for lunches themselves, and for those who do not have such an opportunity, our volunteers deliver lunches to their place of residence.
