6 good things we did together within the Caritas for Ukraine fundraising campaign

This winter, Russian attacks on Ukraine’s energy grid caused extensive power outages. As the war entered its fifth year, households were left without heating, electricity, or water during extremely low temperatures. People in the Czech Republic did not hesitate to show their solidarity. In this article, you will learn where the help from your contributions to the Caritas for Ukraine fundraising campaign was directed.

We have shown that our support is unbreakable—just like the determination and courage of the people of Ukraine. Thank you!

They seek a better life in Zambia. Caritas helps them study at university

Seth was born in a refugee camp in Zambia. His parents come from Rwanda. Therefore, in his childhood, he faced challenges his Zambian peers did not. When he grew up, he decided to study at university and applied for the DAFI Scholarship Programme, which Caritas Czech Republic, together with partners, has been implementing in the country since 2019. This way, we enable access to higher education for refugees living in settlements and urban areas, including Lusaka. The scholarship provides comprehensive support, including tuition, accommodation, and stipends, as well as mentoring and career guidance. Seth became one of 141 refugees who have received our support so far, and were able to study their desired field. These are their stories.
