Forced displacement takes a huge toll on the mental and physical health of every soul. Children are particularly vulnerable to the stress of instability and insecurity caused by fleeing their homes.
Three weeks ago, our team landed in the Romanian capital to help and support Ukrainian refugees in the country. On November 11, we launched our campaign “Together We Can” in a former school dorm which was transformed by its own students into temporary accommodations for Ukrainian families where over the past 9 months more than 2000 people have been passing through this shelter. Today, this four-floor building is a home for around 250 women, children, and elderly. So far, our team handed hundreds of warm KEEN footwear to help them cope with the cold weather also, we distributed a cotton bag for her/him full of all the necessary items they need in their daily life as well, each family received a kettle to have the freedom of making warm drinks in their own rooms.
