WHO IS THIS SHIPMENT HELPING?

As the conflict continues in Ukraine, millions of refugees have been forced to cross the border into neighbouring countries in search of safety. Poland has taken a high number of refugees who are now in need of services and medical care. Despite compassionate refugee policies such as the right to work, safe shelter, food, and medical supplies communities are calling for help to support the influx of arrivals.

In partnership with a local NGO in the region, Crossroads is shipping goods to establish a crisis centre in Poland to support refugee families in urgent need of assistance like housing, clothing, and food. They also provide vulnerable women and children with access to hygiene supplies and toys.

Crossroads’ shipment included goods requested by these partners, like clothing, medical supplies, books, toys, hygiene items and more.
