As Catholics, we know that Advent is a time to reach out with warmth and love to those who need it most. We’re reminded of the Holy Family seeking shelter, warmth and safety in Bethlehem.
With temperatures dangerously low, time is running out to help families this Advent. Families like Maria’s in Ukraine, who face harsh winter conditions and have been forced to flee their home.
Many families need support in the winter. This winter you can share warmth and kindness with people who – through no fault of their own – face incredible challenges. As explained by Valentyn Bebik, a director at our local partner:
“We understand the situation we find ourselves in. There, behind me, where explosions can be heard, lies darkness. It is horror, where people are dying. In front of me is the future, a future Ukraine has been seeking and marching towards. And now, we stand at a crossroads between that horror and this bright future of ours.”
While we wait for Christmas, families like Maria’s can’t wait for safety and warmth. Your donation can help families thrive in 2025, wherever they are. Don’t wait – please give your Advent gift today
