Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
At Rotary, we are deeply concerned by the devastating situation in
Ukraine and the escalating loss of life and humanitarian hardship there. As one of the world’s largest humanitarian organisations, we have made peace the cornerstone of our global mission.
Following a meeting which included more than 40 Rotarian leaders from Ukraine and neighbouring countries, plans have been put in place for Rotary to respond and support the horrific and ongoing humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. Our efforts will principally focus on refugees escaping the war.
Collaboration has also begun with ShelterBox, our global partner in
disaster response, and they are in direct contact with Rotarians in Eastern Europe. As well as ShelterBox, Rotary is also in contact with other emergency response organisations including Red Cross and the United Nations to ensure our efforts are complementary and coordinated.
In Great Britain and Ireland, we have established an operational taskforce, which can act as a vehicle for channelling donations that can be used for the recovery phase of this crisis..
Our thoughts are very much with the people of Ukraine, and our fellow Rotary members. Rotary will do everything in its power to bring aid, support and peace to the region.
The Rotary Club of Flitwick Vale have set aside £1000 to be used to
match fund your donations £1 for £1 so that £2000 can be sent to the appeal. Rotary is a trusted organisation worldwide with high ethical standards and can be relied on to ensure your money reaches those most in need.
