Bohodukhiv community: food assistance for IDPs

Bohodukhiv District of Kharkiv Region is geographically located on the border with the RF and has been under constant enemy fire since the beginning of the full-scale invasion. Despite the danger, about 63,000 internally displaced persons moved to Bohodukhiv District, most of whom fled the occupation.

Unfortunately, the resources of local authorities are insufficient to fully provide IDP families with basic necessities, food, and medicine. And the people themselves have long ago exhausted their own savings and supplies, and now they simply have no one to rely on. The situation is particularly complicated with the onset of winter and cold weather.

There is a possibility that during snowstorms the clearing equipment simply will not reach the small towns and villages, which means that people will be completely cut off from food supplies, humanitarian missions, etc., so they need to make at least some food supplies now.

Now we want to provide 1,350 families with children with the basic necessities - food and for this we need to collect 877,500 UAH. Each food set will consist of several types of cereals, pasta, vegetable oil, sugar, tea, stewed meat and fish. That's enough food for 4 weeks for one person and 2 weeks for a family, and if there are additional food sources (crops, etc.) the period can double.

We ask everyone who cares to participate in the collection and help us provide food for the winter for the displaced families with children.
