Food for Families that Live Near the Front Line
Project need $40.000
About 1 million Ukrainians are experiencing food shortages. We deliver grocery packages for those in need. We distribute 10,000 grocery packages per month, but we can do much more. The cost of one grocery package delivery is only $4.00. Please support our project and make a difference today.
Your donation will be income to the “Ukrainian American House” that has registered 501(с) 3 non-profit organisation. No administration fee. 100% of fund goes to the project.
About 3 million Ukrainians continue to live in the territories that are in the zone of constant hostilities. Due to the destruction of the infrastructure of cities and settlements, hundreds of thousands of people found themselves on the brink of survival.
According to the United Nations official data, about 1 million Ukrainians are experiencing food shortages. Most of these people live on the front lines.
We started our mission in Ukraine following the first days of war and focused on providing targeted help and assistance. We have noticed that only a small part of the food products that came to Ukraine through various international humanitarian organizations was delivered to people living in the front-line area. Most humanitarian aids remained in territories that are far from the combat zone. At the same time, hundreds of thousands of people continue to live in the cities and towns under constant shelling and experience severe food shortages.
UA House sets a mission to deliver and distribute food packages to people who live within 50 miles of the war zone.
We are implementing this project with the Samaritan's Purse, a worldwide humanitarian missionary. They are responsible for providing the products to Ukraine, and we deliver them to final recipients in the war zone. We gathered a team of volunteers, drivers, and administrators, rented a warehouse, and provided transport to organize the packaging and delivery of food to hot spots.
At the moment, we delivered almost 10,000 food packages. One grocery set, which our volunteers form, is curated to feed a family of three for two weeks. However, it does not meet the actual demand.
Delivery of one package costs us an average of $4. This price includes sorting and packaging of produce, refueling of cargo vans, repairing and maintaining transport vehicles, reimbursement of expenses to drivers and volunteers, overhead costs related to warehouse maintenance, and so on.
If you donate $40, you can help us provide 10 families with the food they need. Please support our project and make a difference today.
