The conflict situation, thus our work here, has been constantly changing and we need to adapt to new realities and needs. And it has grown, intensified, and diversified. Patience and hard work, and the help of lots of good hearted local and foreign volunteers, has truly paid off.
We are now, 7 days a week, feeding up to 3000 people within the city (poor and damaged areas, hospices, shelters, orphanages, humanitarian NGOs, military and civilian hospitals . We also cater separately for displaced people camps, people living in shelters, kids and social events trying to make locals get a feeling of normality and some distractions from the harsh everyday life.
I am presently developing a mobile kitchen sideline project through our kitchen to go help feed rural residents in the region that have been cut off; both in terms of road access, and from humanitarian aid that is now essentially concentrated down south at the front line regions, using the 3 mobile kitchens we have secured.
So, exciting and stimulating times in a very sad and unjust situation.
I have literally thrown in this message a bunch of very random photos and videos of our kitchen, food aid deliveries, team of volunteers and of course, of our recipients. I will make an album on my profile shortly with much more, as there is a limit of 80 per message it seems.
Also, here are a few links to some local and international media coverage that came to document what we are doing:
More will be posted later as i do not have them all at the moment.
Also, last thing, we are in constant need for financial support, as you can all understand, We would truly benefit from any help possible, no matter how big or small, to keep this great initiative going for as long as needed.
Thanks you so very much in advance for your help towards supporting the great Ukrainian people.
