The Vostok SOS Charitable Foundation, in collaboration with CARE, has successfully implemented the Emergency Response in Ukraine project. Throughout the project timeline, Vostok SOS provided support to 110 collective shelters across 12 regions. A total of UAH 20,300,000 was utilized to purchase equipment for the shelters, while UAH 18,500,000 was allocated for the procurement and distribution of food and hygiene kits.

The assistance was delivered to the following regions: Zakarpattia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Kyiv, Vinnytsia, Lviv, Rivne, Cherkasy, Kropyvnytskyi, Poltava, Ternopil, Chernivtsi, and Zaporizhzhia. The shelters were equipped with various essential items for bedrooms, kitchens, showers, and bathrooms, including:

  • 131 functional beds (for bedridden people, the elderly, people with reduced mobility, or in need of some form of health care);
  • 349 ordinary beds;
  • 210 mattresses;
  • 1497 sets of bed linen;
  • 457 pillows and blankets;
  • 1760 textile items;
  • 159 sanitary wares items;
  • 2122 household equipment items;
  • 11 sets of kitchen appliances (depending on specific requests of shelters);
  • 42 sets of professional kitchen appliances (depending on specific requests of shelters);
  • 469 sets of kitchenware;
  • 2778 sets of furniture (depending on specific requests of the shelter);
  • 5 generators.

During the project implementation, a total of 11,860 individuals from the war-affected population, who were accommodated in the collective shelters, received crucial humanitarian aid in the form of individual food and hygiene kits. The breakdown of beneficiaries is as follows:

  • 10,495 adults (including 2,363 individuals who received diapers) – among them, there were 8,495 women and 2,100 men;
  • 600 babies under the age of 3;
  • 765 adults residing in geriatric centers who received diapers.

We express our heartfelt appreciation to CARE for their invaluable support in assisting the individuals affected by the russian war in Ukraine. Given the absence of a clear state strategy for the establishment of temporary accommodation centers for internally displaced persons (IDPs) and the insufficient state funding for such projects, it is through the collaborative efforts of volunteer initiatives, local governments, local businesses, and humanitarian organizations that shelters can be identified and established in safer regions of Ukraine.
