Caritas organizations across Europe joined forces to help people affected by war

We started helping on the border with Ukraine immediately after the Russian attack. Since the start of the conflict, Caritas Czech Republic has raised over CZK 101 million (4 million EUR), sent three trucks with humanitarian aid to the most affected areas and is also helping refugees in the Czech Republic. We are able to meet the needs of people in Ukraine, on the run and in the target countries thanks to the joint efforts of the entire Caritas network.

More aid is heading to Ukraine - Caritas sending a truck with power generators

The situation in the border town of Tiachiv in south-western Ukraine is tense. Thousands of refugees are arriving here every day, trying to escape the war. For the local Caritas Tiachiv, a partner of the Ostrava-Opava Diocesan Caritas, the situation is becoming unmanageable. There is a lack of medical supplies, hygiene items and electricity access. That is why another truck from the Caritas Czech Republic is heading there.
