The Shehyni Humanitarian Aid Centre was founded by a group of volunteers who joined their forces with a common goal: to provide heat and fundamental help to Ukrainians escaping from war, waiting in long lines at the border crossing.

A one-off idea turned into an impactful, long-term initiative not limited to the local help in Shehyni. They adopted an inactive foundation to formalize their operations as a legal entity. Now they are acting as Fundacja My z Wami. Since its inception, the Shehyni Humanitarian Aid Center has collected and sent parcels (named 'Box of Goods') with more than 150,000 kg of food and relief items.

The help is still very much desired as December brought us winter which struck hard. This month is also a special holiday time and we would like to contribute to spreading a little bit of joy among the ones in need. We are collecting money for Boxes of Goods which will be a tremendous support for 115 children who live in the container town near Lviv.

Composition of packages: 

• hats, gloves and scarves
• thermoactive T-shirts
• toothpaste and toothbrushes
• hand warmers
• mascots
• coloring books and crayons
• sweets and fruit mousses
• warm socks

Hence, Ciklum employees decided to set a goal of 5175 PLN to provide help to every single one child in the container village.

The collection will last one week (until Thursday, Dec 22).
