Caritas for Ukraine
Payment methods: 
The war in Ukraine continues, bringing devastating consequences for civilians. Millions have lost their homes, and thousands of schools, hospitals, and houses have been damaged or destroyed. Many Ukrainians have become internally displaced and now live in temporary and inadequate conditions without basic necessities. They lack safe housing, access to clean water, heating, and medical care. Caritas Czech Republic has been providing long-term support directly on the ground — repairing damaged homes and restoring healthcare facilities, building modular shelters, securing access to drinking water, and helping to establish mental health centres.
Why donate now
- More than 12 million people urgently need help
– that’s every third person in Ukraine - Air raid sirens go off up to twice a day
– the average alert lasts 2 hours, but some last up to 10 - Nearly 4 million people are displaced within Ukraine
– living in temporary shelters, searching for a way to reclaim dignity
- Civilian sites are under attack
– including schools, hospitals, aid centres, and homes - The healthcare system is overwhelmed
– Hospitals and rehabilitation centres need repairs and expansion - Living in fear affects mental health
– people need support and a sense of stability
Attacks on both military and civilian targets have intensified in recent months. Residential buildings are being destroyed, the number of dead and injured is rising, and new waves of evacuation are underway. Damaged structures must be repaired or replaced, and the wounded place an even greater burden on an already overstretched healthcare system. The psychosocial strain on Ukrainian society is growing, and it will likely take decades to fully recover from the consequences. Our work continues, the needs are increasing, and we see it as our duty to persevere in providing help.
