This is the third year of the “three-day war”, and this will be our third Mama’s Market. After over 3 years of war the humanitarian needs are even greater. There are more dead, more wounded, more displaced, more homeless, more psychologically traumatised and more orphaned. We are compelled, therefore, to continue to fundraise for the cause.
We cannot tire and get bored with the war!
The facts:
Over 6 million Ukrainians have become refugees and an additional 8 million have been displaced within Ukraine since Russia’s invasion
In excess of 20,000 children have been deported to Russia (stolen) since the 2022 full scale invasion.
Women in vulnerable areas have had to flee their homes and escape from the occupied territories in fear that their children could be stolen. They are now in hiding but have no means of supporting themselves and their children. We are helping them.
The war in Ukraine is a global issue affecting the cost of living world wide.
Ukrainians are fighting for freedom and democracy and to ensure that the war does not escalate to a broader world conflict.
