Let’s help hundreds of Roma women and children!

Hundreds of Roma women and children from Ukraine are currently trapped in the war in Ukraine and Moldova. They cannot continue to other countries or seek shelter due to lack of documents. And so the most vulnerable become even more vulnerable. Fellow volunteers from NGOs in Ukraine, Moldova and Romania have been supporting them for weeks with everything they can. But they are already exhausted and need help.

The colleagues from Integro Association shared a list of essential products. Please review the list and help if you can. You can bring / send the collected products to the office of Amalipe Center in Veliko Tarnovo, 23 Marno Pole Str., 4th floor, apartment 5 or contact the nearest mediator. Together with our colleagues from Integro Association, we will cover the costs of transport to the border between Romania and Ukraine (Tulcea), where the Romanian and Moldovan colleagues have built a warehouse and are collecting the products. If you need more information, you can contact us at e-mail Help_Ukraine@amalipe.com 

If you want to learn more about the situation or how you can help, you can join the zoom meeting, which together with the Integro Association we organize on Saturday (March 26) from 17.00. If you want to join the meeting, write to us at Help_Ukraine@amalipe.com

Thank you!
