Statement by Dominika Kulczyk, President of the Management Board of Kulczyk Foundation:
The Day of Solidarity with Refugees is a sign of our sensitivity

“We stood in lines, there was no milk or bread, but there was no one dropping bombs on us. Back then, we could live. Now, people are dying...” says Izaida from Makiivka, who has not been paid for her work in months. There could be as many as 4.5 million citizens in a similar situation in Ukraine – elderly people in need of immediate help. We decided, together with Rotary International (RI) and Kulczyk Foundation, to give the elderly from the Donetsk Oblast food packages purchased thanks to the kind hearts of Poles. With your help, we can make it happen!

We help to help. This time, we helped out the ‘PEKAES POMAGA (PEKAES HELPS)’ campaign by organizing a contest for libraries. Voting for a library enabled people to support actual improvements, because the prize was an interior renovation. 

A package for an elderly person deprived of their home, food, security, and hope by the Ukrainian war costs only PLN 25. One food package is a real lifesaver because it provides another two weeks of life without fear of starvation. The Onet.pl Group, Rotary International (RI), and Kulczyk Foundation want to give the elderly from the Donetsk Oblast food packages purchased thanks to the kind hearts of Poles.
