When the Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine was destroyed, catastrophe ensued, and extreme floods displaced entire villages.
One month later, UNFPA is still on the ground deploying immediate, critical humanitarian assistance to the affected communities.
- The UNFPA-supported Survivor Relief Center has provided humanitarian aid to survivors and supported evacuation efforts.
- Even after being severely impacted by flooding, the 'VILNA' women-friendly space in Kherson has remained operational to continue assisting evacuees with psychological support.
- UNFPA’s mobile teams have remained active through the flooding to help evacuees access essential medical and legal services.
- Our team continues to distribute dignity kits, which include essential hygiene items for women and girls, in flood-affected areas.
With the war raging, life in Ukraine was already challenging for women and girls. Now, this flooding disaster has added another layer of need. UNFPA was instantly on the ground, delivering lifesaving care and relief. But to expand our presence assisting survivors and reach more women and girls displaced by flooding in Ukraine, we’re counting on gifts from supporters like you.
Donate today to help women and girls impacted by catastrophe and warfare in Ukraine rebuild their lives, regain some stability, and live with dignity even in the darkest of times.
Thank you for being with women and girls, no matter what.
