Solidarity Ukraine

A year after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, the country’s humanitarian situation is catastrophic. Fondation de France remains mobilized.

For more than eight months, Fondation de France has stepped in and come to the aid of people affected by the conflict. As the latter turns into a war of attrition, we focus on changing needs and new initiatives.

Six months ago, few days after the first Russian offensive in Ukraine, Fondation de France lauched a solidarity appeal to help the vulnerable population affected by the conflict.

Karine Meaux, Head of the International Solidarity Department of Fondation de France, gives an update on the local situation and the actions undertaken.

Thanks to the Solidarity with Ukraine call for funds launched on February 28, almost 14 million euros was raised to help those affected by the conflict. How does Fondation de France operate in this context? What takes priority? Here is a review of the work to date.

The appeal for funds launched by Fondation de France on February 28 has raised 14 million euros to help the people affected by the conflict in Ukraine. This amazing outpouring of generosity contributes to supporting immediate action on the ground for those who need it.

On 28 February, the Fondation de France launched a fundraising appeal to help families affected by the conflict in Ukraine. Thanks to the tremendous outpouring of generosity from donors - individuals and companies alike - and from sheltered foundations, more than €5 million has already been raised.

2 millions people have already left Ukraine to escape the military offensive in the country. In coordination with several European foundations, the Fondation de France is launching a solidarity appeal to provide emergency aid to thousands of people affected by the conflict.
