As conflict continues to escalate in Ukraine, millions of children and their families are in danger.
Please donate today and help us protect the children. They did not ask for this war. Stand together to fight the enemy. Show that love and peace will always win. The world needs to come together and bring light back to those in darkness.
On Saturday 19th March, around 10:30, I will begin my fundraising challenge. My plan is to walk for 24 hours on a treadmill in a weighted vest, to replicate what the Military and innocent civilians are currently wearing to fight for their homeland and freedom.
Here is a little more information about the ongoing humanitarian crisis and how your donations will help: (read to end)
The whole child population of Ukraine, 7.5 million children, is now at risk as the conflict continues to escalate. With explosions in major cities across the country and thousands of families being forced to flee their homes, UNICEF is calling for an immediate ceasefire.
Homes, schools, water supplies and hospitals have been damaged or destroyed. Children have been separated from their families and hundreds of thousands of people have been left without safe water, electricity or water. Explosives including landmines are a daily threat to children’s lives.
More than 1 million people have now fled Ukraine, with the number expected to climb to 5 million. UNICEF are working round the clock to keep families safe.
How your donations could help:
£5 could help provide 1785 water purification tablets.
£15 could help provide exercise books for a class of 50 children to help them continue their education in times of crisis.
£27 could provide emergency shelter for one family, to keep them safe and warm.
£32 could help pay for a large first aid kit for a health worker.
£46 could provide a family with an emergency water and hygiene kit.
£80 could help pay for school supplies to help at least 20 children to continue their education in these times of war.
How UNICEF is helping children in Ukraine:
We have been working tirelessly to keep children safe since this conflict began eight years ago and we are determined to remain in Ukraine to reach the most vulnerable children and families.
• We are helping to provide families with access to clean water and healthy food.
• We are delivering lifesaving supplies to support families who have been forced to flee and are working closely with local health facilities to ensure they have the vital supplies needed.
• We are helping to make sure that child protection services continue.
• We are working with our partners and the UNHCR to assess the refugee situation across neighbouring countries.
• In neighbouring countries we are delivering Blue Dot safe spaces with our partners, which will provide care and support, information to families seeking refuge, psychosocial support, water and sanitation supplies, safe spaces for mothers and children, protection for unaccompanied and separated children and more.
This means so much to me guys. Thank you for your support.
