Over the last few days, our Winter Hugs winter humanitarian programme has delivered almost 800 sleeping bags to Kherson, where many people have been living without electricity for over a year and are preparing to face winter without hot water or central heating.<\/span><\/p>

Launched just three weeks ago with our partner Union of Help to Kherson, our campaign has taken on an exceptional dimension thanks to the mobilisation of our American donor Hope for Ukraine, who had already supported us with our football programme for amputees. Their generous support enabled us to purchase 640 sleeping bags.\u00a0And with your help, we can go even further.<\/span><\/p>

Recently, the Russian army has also been attacking gas infrastructures throughout the country, with the aim of depriving the population of heating and hot water. This is what prompted us to take swift action, and it is thanks to the Union of Help to Kherson on the ground and Hope for Ukraine that we are able to carry out this action without delay.<\/p>

Our credo remains the same: \u201cMicro humanitarian instant impact.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>Micro-humanitarianism with an immediate impact.\u00a0<\/span>And the word immediate is essential.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
