Why Walk For Ukraine?
A Childhood Traumatised: Ukraine has a child population of 7.5 million. Since the Russian invasion:
Over 380 children have been killed, and an estimated five million are now refugees or displaced. They have lost everything.
Over 12 million people have seen their lives, homes, villages, towns and cities devastated.
It is Europe's largest refugee crisis since World War II, and the numbers keep rising.
20th - 24th August. Walk 10,000 steps or as many as you can. Together let's walk 5 million steps and make each step symbolise what Ukrainian children have lost
24th August Celebrate Ukrainian Independence Day by sharing a picture from your part of the world and to say we have not forgotten them.
Our Nominated Organisation
The Vinnytsia Center for Vocational and Technical Education has used its premises for food, shelter, and humanitarian aid to those fleeing the conflict zone since the start of the Russian invasion
The Refugee Hub can only accommodate 300 displaced persons at one time, before moving on to safe zones. The Hub desperately needs your support to continue their work.
GQ has published the story of British journalist Jack Losh’s harrowing journey out of Kharkiv, and his stay at The College, which has become a waypoint for those seeking safety
You can find out more about The College on their Website, Facebook, Twitter or Youtube
We are humbled and honoured be supporting an organisation in Vinnytsia, a city that has sadly seen deaths and casualties from missile attacks.
Funds raised will be paid to The Foundation For Innovative Development of Ukraine to be distributed to The College.
