On February 24, 2022, the lives of 7.5 million children changed forever.
One year on, the war continues to have a devastating impact on children. Children have spent on average more than 900 hours hiding in bunkers across the country, and this number is significantly higher in areas closer to active hostilities.
Save the Children has worked inside Ukraine since 2014 - serving children and families even before this war began. Today, our staff and partners remain dedicated to providing life-saving humanitarian assistance to families who need it most. Thanks to generous supporters like you, we will continue to serve the children of Ukraine wherever they are and for however long they need us.
From the day the war began, we have worked alongside partners to provide humanitarian aid and essential services to over 1 million people across Ukraine, Poland, Romania and Lithuania.
Our team, with nearly 10 years of experience working in Ukraine, leveraged the expertise of local partners to immediately begin providing support to families throughout the country. At the same time, we quickly set up services for children and families in desperate need of support who were arriving at border crossings to escape the conflict.
Those fleeing the conflict came to us with little to no belongings. Our teams worked day-after-day to provide food, water, winter clothes and hygiene items to those who needed it most. Providing safe spaces for women and children (especially those who were separated from their families) quickly became one of our top priorities and remains a focus of our response to this day.
Your support has allowed us to grow our response to include: supply distributions; cash assistance; health; nutrition; education; water, sanitation and hygiene; protection; shelter; and mental health and psychosocial support.
A year on, our teams and partners continue to work in Ukraine and throughout the region, ensuring children and their families receive the support they desperately need for as long as they will need it.
