REFUGEE FAMILIES NEED URGENT HELP
Countries across Europe are hosting refugees fleeing the Russian invasion in Ukraine. The UN estimates that more than 9 million refugees have left the country since the conflict began, a number that will keep increasing as Russian forces continue in their attempts to overthrow the democratically elected government in Kyiv, and seize control of a number of Ukrainian cities.
Millions of Ukrainians have been crossing the borders into Romania and Moldova where Children on the Edge worked closely with local partner organisations between 1990 to 2012.
Our relationships with these partner organisations remain strong to this day and we are supporting them as they respond to the crisis on the ground, which is evolving as the conflict continues. They need the resources to identify and respond to the needs of Ukrainian refugees as they arise and support refugees as they now look to stay in Moldova and Romania for the long term.

WHERE WILL YOUR MONEY BE SPENT?
Your money will help support refugees in Moldova and Romania with accommodation, food and essential supplies.

In the initial stages of the crisis, most refugees transited through Moldova and Romania and our services focused on supporting refugees for a short period before they moved on. However, many Ukrainian refugees are now settling in Romania and Moldova as the conflict in Ukraine continues.
We are working with our partner organisations to support these refugees and ensure they have the long term support they need to recover from the trauma of fleeing their homes and adjust to life in their host countries. As the situation evolves, we will continue to meet the needs identified by our partners; always supporting those who are most on the edge. |

ARE YOU COLLECTING DONATIONS OF ITEMS?
We are not collecting donations of clothes, blankets, medical supplies and so on for Ukrainian refugees. The approach we take in all our projects around the world is to partner with local organisations, so the most cost effective and sustainable way to provide what is needed is to source materials within each country where we work.
We believe that donating money to trusted organisations, like us, who have experience of working with refugees in crisis situations, is the best way to support Ukrainian refugees. Financial donations enable charities and organisations to react quickly and spend money where the need is greatest.
