Dear friend,

As director of media and communications in Europe, I often bear witness to the hardships facing our program participants.

Right now, migrants and displaced people around the world are bracing for the winter ahead.

In Ukraine, for example, I’ve seen how the harsh winds, slippery roads and trails, and frigid weather severely impact the safety and well-being of families who are forced to flee their homes.

To make it through the cold months ahead, families in Ukraine need suitable shelter to keep warm and access to cash to be able to afford basic necessities and medical supplies.

When you give to Mercy Corps, your support goes up to 5X as far — every $1 you donate today is combined with an average of up to $4 in additional funding, enabling us to provide even more relief for displaced and migrant families. Will you make a first-time gift today and help us continue to meet the most urgent needs in Ukraine and 40+ countries?

Here at Mercy Corps, alongside our partners, we are working to support families in Ukraine. We are helping to supply shelter for displaced families and emergency learning spaces for children, helping restore homes that were damaged by the conflict, providing grants and training to businesses, and distributing emergency cash, food, water, and sanitation supplies.
     
When conflict escalated in Ukraine, a bomb fell on Eduard’s (black top) neighborhood and damaged his home. He also lost his main source of income as the factory where he worked closed due to conflict. With Mercy Corps’ cash assistance program, he was able to make repairs to his home, purchase basic necessities, and continue pricing for his family. Mercy Corps’ support meant that Eduard was able to have enough food, clothing, warmth, and a safe place to call home ahead of the winter months.
 
     
Olena (blue top) was forced to flee her home with her kids due to escalating conflict in her hometown. She found refuge at a Mercy Corps-supported shelter in a neighboring city. The shelter has a fully stocked kitchen, living area, and outdoor space for children to play. Mercy Corps’ support provides families like Olena’s with shelter and other support during the cold winter months.
 
     
In western Ukraine, Mercy Corps partners run a childcare center for displaced families in the country. The center provides free care, food, clothing, and a warm, safe space for children to play and learn. It also gives parents time to figure out the logistics of relocating their families.
 
Right now, 3.7 million people are internally displaced within Ukraine, and more than 6.1 million Ukrainian refugees are displaced across Europe. As the winter months approach, we will continue to provide shelter, food, and life-saving support for families affected by this ongoing war.

Together, we are delivering a warm, safe place for families who are forced to flee their homes. Please make a gift today to support these efforts in Ukraine and our work in 40+ countries supporting civilians affected by violent conflict and humanitarian crises.

Thank you,
