KIWI K.A.R.E UKRAINE - Kiwi Aid & Refugee Evacuation

Hi all - we are about the reach our goal of raising $500,000 for two years of humanitarian support to Ukraine.

So we’ve decided to extend the goal and keep going!

With your generous help and indefatigable support, we have achieved a lot during this time and I thought it was time we reflected on the highlights as detailed below.

Kiwi K.A.R.E, a registered New Zealand Charitable Organisation, has been operating in Ukraine since May 2022, and has provided invaluable support as follows:

* Delivered hundreds of tonnes of humanitarian and medical aid to front line cities and towns;

*Conducted numerous civilian evacuations, including long-haul evacuations of entire family groups to western Europe;

*Conducted mobile health clinics in newly liberated red zones as part of a medical outreach programme;

* Fabricated and delivered over 2500 wood burning stoves and water boilers for civilians without power and water;

* Managed the International logistics of moving 33 ambulances from New Zealand and Australia to Western Europe, with the additional purchase of one truck and six support vehicles within Europe to maintain their operations in Ukraine;

* All the aforementioned has been funded through private donations from generous New Zealanders, through effective fundraising initiatives and regular presentations to business and community groups.

My big thanks to you wonderful New Zealanders 💙💛
