Public collection for Ukraine

In June 2015 the Caritas CR discussed with the Association of Private Agriculture CR the possibility of organizing a public collection for Ukraine. In the beginning of July, the collection was publicly announced in the magazine Selská Revue and it was held from 31 August to 25 September 2015. There were nine collection points in nine regions all over the Czech Republic, namely in the regions of Plzen, Litoměřice, Český Krumlov, Prague, Benešov, Žďár nad Sázavou, Rychnov nad Kněžnou, Kroměříž a Tábor. The collections were transferred to Ukraine in the course of the first week in November.
