Story

Heavy fighting, shelling and air strikes across Ukraine have had devastating consequences. Over 2 million people, mostly women and children have fled Ukraine, with over 1.2 million crossing the border into Poland. Hundreds of thousands of women and children are arriving with only what they can carry. Hungry, exhausted and traumatised, people are in urgent need of food, water and shelter. People are losing their homes and lives, essential services like water and healthcare have been hit and temperatures have dropped below zero.

ActionAid is scaling up its response to provide emergency support and protection for those forced to flee to Poland, Hungary and Romania. Urgent needs include food, water, shelter, hygiene and dignity kits.

What will happen next is unclear, but with your help, ActionAid and other DEC charities can scale up our response and help families affected by this crisis.

Your support will help us provide emergency food, keep families warm and protect women and girls.

Set up an online collection today and fundraise to help reach those in urgent need in Ukraine and neighbouring countries. Just click the orange 'Start fundraising' button.
