We stand for Ukraine
15 March 2022 Update
We admire and support (as much as we can) the efforts that NGOs, volunteers, local administrations, churches and Romanian people put into helping the Ukrainian crossing the borders in different parts of the country.
We hope and we encourage you to keep your enthusiasms for helping one another as long as it takes (which might be a while) given that we won’t know for sure when this will end…
We are also aware, even though the need for help is huge, that sometimes we need to take a break and disconnect a little bit from the subject in order to keep our mental and physical health. We cannot do any good for others if we are not good.
We have some updates form our initial lists that you can use on your search for help or your search to offer help. Make sure to check our initial list too. You will find it lower on the page.
