Following the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine, the region has been hit by severe flooding, with tens of thousands leaving their homes and over 30 towns and villages affected. The consequences for those affected are enormous, not only in terms of losing their homes, but also in terms of threatening the supply of essential goods for survival, such as food and clean water. The long-term humanitarian and environmental consequences of this disaster could be enormous.
Thanks to the cooperation with our Swiss partner organisations, we are providing aid to people in need in large parts of Ukraine. In the region affected by the floods, we have been supporting a large HEKS project for over a year. Following the floods we were able to quickly adapt the project to the dramatic situation and provide emergency aid. This way, people affected by the water masses receive fast, urgently needed help. We are in contact with our Swiss partner organisations in Ukraine and continue to monitor the situation.
In order to implement our projects in Ukraine for the victims of the war, we depend on your support and solidarity. Thank you very much for your donation.
