Tthanks to your contribution and in cooperation with the local association Dobri Liudi Bukovinu of Kitsman (Chernivtsi) we were able to support the Ukrainian population in need, both displaced people and resident people living in difficult situation.

Besides this, non-displaced population in situation of poverty were also included in the distribution.
