| | I’m sure you’ve seen the headlines on what’s happening in Ukraine, so I wanted to give you a quick update. The situation has deteriorated quickly, and people need urgent support.
The UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Filippo Grandi has stated: “we have already seen reports of casualties and people starting to flee their homes to seek safety... The humanitarian consequences on civilian populations will be devastating. There are no winners in war but countless lives will be torn apart.” |
We have been on the ground in Ukraine since 2014 providing critical relief items and shelter to people forced to flee. In this current crisis, we are working with the authorities, UN and other partners in Ukraine and in neighboring countries to scale up our assistance as needed and to respond to any situation of forced displacement. |
Please donate now to provide urgently needed relief to ordinary people forced to flee their homes.
We’ll be sure to keep you updated on any developments from Ukraine... in the meantime, thank you for any support you can provide.

With gratitude for your support,
Astrid van Genderen Stort
Chief of Emergencies and External Engagement, UNHCR
