In connection to the war in Ukraine, Cross Cultures has established an emergency relief program to help children in 5 of the eastern regions of Ukraine.
Earlier this month we could tell you about our emergency program to help children in 7 of the western regions of Ukraine
Establish lifesaving activities
The ongoing and devastating attacks on Ukraine has turned the country into a dynamic warzone, where attacks on the northern, eastern, southern regions are worsening the humanitarian situation rapidly.
Cross Cultures’ main concern in this program funded by Danish Emergency Relief Fund (DERF), will be to establish lifesaving activities focusing on vulnerable children, to assist them in emergency shelters, and to provide and distribute food assistance, emergency aid kits, medicine, diapers, and more in the heavily affected regions here-and-now.
Where in Ukraine?
Following recent Russian armed force’s aggressions, all activities have stopped.
However, Cross Cultures is communicating with the local CSP-coordinators in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, Zaporizhzhia, and Dnipro regions, through AUFCR (All-Ukrainian Foundation for Children’s Rights), who have adapted their operations from child protection to lifesaving activities, focusing on supporting the people affected and distribution of essential supplies.
These local CSP-networks provide Cross Cultures and AUFCR with a strong access to reach the target groups with humanitarian aid in the current situation. Thus, Cross Cultures argues that the effectiveness and timeliness of the proposed action is rooted in our direct and daily contact with our local networks and implementing partner, AUFCR.
