John —
It's been more than seven months since the conflict in Ukraine began, and the dire situation for Ukrainian families and children continues to escalate. As the political situation continues to progress, we are getting a much clearer picture of the devastation brought by the conflict.
Thousands of residential buildings, schools, health centers and community buildings have been destroyed, putting millions of people at risk of losing access to electricity, water and shelter.
On top of it all, Ukraine's harsh winter is about to set in, compounding the danger for millions of people who have already endured violence and shortages of essentials like food.
John, the IRC is identifying immediate needs as the number of people forced from their homes in Ukraine increases once again.
Since February, the IRC has coordinated our emergency response efforts in Ukraine with local partners to reach those most in need. We are in Poland, Ukraine and Moldova, delivering vital services such as cash assistance, mental health support and safe healing and learning spaces for children.
The bottom line is: This winter will be incredibly difficult for Ukraine's people, whose lives have been shattered by conflict and economic crisis. Just as we have throughout this war, we will continue doing everything we can to help civilians survive, recover their lives and thrive despite these unimaginably difficult circumstances.

If you're able, I hope you'll consider making a gift using this link personalized for supporters like you to support our efforts to help children and families in Ukraine and around the world recover from conflict and disaster.
We will continue to keep you updated on the IRC's response. Thank you for all that you do to support this vital work.
Sincerely,
— Hank, IRC Donor Relations
