A Message From Inside Ukraine
My heart is welling with hope, and I’m authentically moved by your readiness to help. We are not capable however, especially in Kyiv or in Fastiv, to coordinate material help, facilitate refugee transfer to Poland, or organize transport of things. Please act in your own locations, wherever you live. If we need anything and we know it would be possible to achieve, we will let you know, and we will ask you.
Please connect to our Dominican priories in Poland — I know that my brothers and sisters are up to the task... We are gathering means that we intend to use now and also in the future. I know for sure that they will be very needed.
Here “on the front lines” we are not able to deal with this ocean of good initiative from the whole world, and we have to stay focused on those who are immediately next to us.
- Fr. Jaroslaw Krawiec, OP, in Kyiv
Give to help the Ukrainian People
100% of funds donated will be collected by the Western Dominican Province, then transferred to the Polish Dominican Province, who is on the front lines of providing refugees with food, clothing, housing, and medical care.
If you’re inspired to help, please make a gift and join us in working to alleviate the suffering caused by the war in Ukraine.
Thank you for your kindness!
