Ukraine Donations

 

In response to the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, we’ll be supporting churches in Ukraine who’ve reached out to us for help.

 

Over two years on from the escalation of conflict in Ukraine, Hope Church have been the conduit for almost £250,000 of support.

 

What does this look like?

The war continues, cities in the east are attacked by missiles almost daily.

The aid is taken as close to the front line as possible, supporting people in need through local Church partners. Almost 30 vans have travelled to Poland (Krakow) from Hope and approximately 50 volunteers have flown to Krakow to buy food in a warehouse and fill Ukrainian vans.

Thanks to your donations directly to Hope and with the generous financial support of the New Frontiers family of Churches we have been privileged and humbled to serve our Ukrainian brothers and sisters under such hardship.

How to help

  • Items

    We’ve been given a list of items that would help bless the churches in Ukraine as they look to support Ukrainian Refugees. It mainly covers non-perishable food items, children’s clothing and non-prescription medical supplies. If you’d like to donate, you can find the full list below.

  • Drop Off

    You can drop off items for donation to our HQ (unit 8), inside The Walnuts Shopping Centre BR6 0TW. These will then be packaged and sent as part of the next delivery. We also have drop off bins at all of our congregations.

  • Give

    If you’re unable to get hold of any of the items, or would rather make a financial donation, we will also greatly appreciate donations to help cover costs or resource items ourselves.

A message from Vladimir…

Vladimir, a pastor from Lviv, Ukraine, who until a year ago lived in the occupied East. The food is taken to feed refugees in Lviv and distributed by volunteers behind the front line. Some sadly have not returned from these brave humanitarian acts of service, mainly feeding the elderly.

Make a donation

For each round trip, a van costs £1500. We’ll be taking as many vans as necessary to ensure all of our donations arrive in Krakow. If you can help support us with a financial donation, please give below, referencing ‘Ukraine fund’.
