More than 20 tons of supplies were donated as an initiative of the “Hope for Ukraine” project, implemented by ADRA Romania, following the request of the “Western Bucovina Conference” organization based in Chernivtsi. Tens of thousands of donated supplies, including hygiene products, food, clothing, detergent, first aid products, medicines and food supplements, with a value of nearly $40,000 were received. They were transported to Ukraine on March 13th with the help of 34 ADRA Romania volunteers, to help Ukrainian refugees housed both in the centers in Chernivtsi district and in the Kiev area. The 11th ADRA Romania Humanitarian Convocation, “Hope for Ukraine,” held in Bukovina, included the presence of ADRA International, ADRA Bulgaria, ADRA Hungary and ADRA Ukraine teams, with all members arriving safely at home afterwards. ADRA and the Adventist Church in Europe have expressed their profound concern for the people affected by the armed conflict in Ukraine. These are circumstances where the Adventist Church’s mission invites an immediate and focused response. ADRA Europe’s constituents, supported by their respective national authorities, charitable agencies, churches and individual donors, were deeply moved by the flight of fear-filled people. The Adventist Church in Europe will continue to respond to the needs of displaced people.
