Help wounded Ukrainians to live their lives

$34,094 of $60,000 goal
Given by 253 generous donors in 3 years

Your donation will cover the shipping costs to transport containers with humanitarian aid, donated by generous Kiwis, from NZ to Ukraine.

Nationwide

Over 4 years Ukrainians have been fighting for their survival. Residential buildings, schools, and hospitals continue to be shelled. Thousands of Ukrainians have been injured, and they require assistance to lead their lives. There is a severe shortage of medical equipment.

Since this 'container' project started 4 years ago, thanks to your support from every corner of NZ, 11 containers of aid have been successfully delivered to Ukraine. The 12th container is about to land in Ukraine. This is a truly amazing NZ wide community project run by volunteers who care about people in Ukraine.

The Ukrainians are so grateful to receive medical equipment from Kiwis - wheelchairs, hospital beds, walking frames, crutches, catheters, dressings, wound drains, adult diapers and other essentials. Beside this, NZ made merino thermals were supplied to the front-line defenders. Your generous donations of clothing, children's toys also warm hearts and bodies of displaced Ukrainians.

Ukrainian Association of New Zealand is reaching out for your help. Your donation will cover the shipping and logistics costs to transport the containers from NZ to Ukraine.

On the ground in Ukraine, a dedicated and trusted group of volunteers will ensure these medical supplies reach the people who urgently require them. Your support can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by war.

Ukrainian Association of New Zealand (Northern Regions)'s involvement (page creator)

UANZ is a community based, non-profit organisation founded in 2007. We have a network of volunteers and supporters to organise, pack, store and move the donated goods, help with compliance and paperwork for the shipment of containers.

Use of funds

The donations will be spent on cost of delivery the container(s) from New Zealand to Ukraine and purchasing thermal underwear from a local NZ manufacturer. The project promises to be ongoing. It means there may be more containers than one.
