While spring has arrived in many places, parts of Ukraine remain quite cold. In cities like Bila Tserkva, Cherkasy, Chernihiv, Pervomaisk, and Uzhhorod, the weather is temperate during the day, but at night temperature drops substantially (40-50 degrees Fahrenheit or 7-12 degrees Celcius). Families continue to need heat for their homes after the sun goes down. But after more than 4 years of war, many individuals and families struggle to cover their basic living expenses; prices are high, and savings have been depleted. Elderly residents living alone and large families generally face the greatest difficulties.
We have continued our heating voucher program to help address the critical needs, ensuring people can remain in their homes without freezing.
The challenges are immense, but we are undeterred. We are grateful to the local leaders, staff and volunteers in Ukraine, as well as our donors throughout the world who make our work possible. Together we find a way to address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the Jews of Ukraine.
Together we save lives and restore hope.
