On the 24th of February 2022, Russia initiated a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, leading to a devastating and escalating humanitarian crisis.
The consequences are dire, as countless families bear witness to a series of tragedies that reverberate through communities, leaving a lasting and profound impact.
The indiscriminate nature of the conflict has inflicted severe suffering upon civilians, with a particular emphasis on the vulnerability of children, who are disproportionately affected by the hostilities.
As the conflict persists, the Ukrainian civilian population grapples with deteriorating conditions, facing challenges ranging from the scarcity of essential resources to the constant threat of violence.
Acknowledging the pressing and evolving nature of the crisis, FEBA took urgent action by extending crucial assistance to the Ukrainian population via its member organisation, the Ukrainian Food Bank Federation.
We are currently launching a new fundraising campaign, FoodAidUkraine, with the primary goal of providing sustenance and hope to individuals facing dire and worsening circumstances.
The impending economic and social ramifications, compounded by harsh winter conditions, pose a significant challenge to survival.
Your aid and backing are essential, empowering us to sustain and broaden our assistance to those presently lacking food and in the days ahead.
Let us join forces to extend much-needed emergency support to individuals and uphold the fundamental principles of humanity.
Jacques Vandenschrik, President of the European Food Banks Federation
