Working with Satya @Workingwithsatya
A company that promotes awareness and has been working in Ukraine for 15 years. Ukrainians, for us, are family.
When this conflict started, we received requests for help from friends, then from family members, from friends of family members, from strangers... and since that day my phone has never stopped ringing.
These people have lost their homes, their families, their jobs and many of them do not know whether to see their children or husbands again. Men who were called to fight and defend their country. People who look to all a life's work to be stolen by a raw war! All they have left is a chance for a new life!
People who don't know how to get to the border, people who managed to get out but left dreams and memories behind, others who decided to fight and need medicine in the war zone... There are no rich people, there are no poor people. There are these requests that have been breaking our hearts daily!
What have we already achieved?
We activated all our contacts in Portugal and together we managed to:
- [x] A humanitarian caravan that is transporting people from the borders to Portugal
- [x] Collect tons of material donations;
- [x] Send donations to our direct contacts in Ukraine and ensure they reach their destination.
- [x] Collect medicine to send to the war zone
- [x] Partnership with other associations and institutions to work in cooperation
- [x] Send donations to 80 orphanages within Ukraine
- [x] We have already raised more than 1000 beds and built a digital platform to support the reception process.
Why do we need help?
What started as a one-time distress call has turned into a cold war of requests for help crossing the border! We are already bringing in hundreds of refugees but the number is growing at an exasperating rate every day.
We have felt that one of the biggest problems of humanitarian aid is the difficulty in making monetary donations so that we can really redirect all our expenses. That's why we've worked so far to raise donations and contact partnerships! However, demand overshadows supply and we quickly realized that even with so many donations it is impossible to help these families without having the funds to properly welcome them in Portugal.
Why help us?
At Working with Satya, we always guarantee transparency in all our spending. We created the non-profit association "Helping with Satya", to ensure the careful management of all expenses, which for us is essential:
- Accommodation
- Food
- Health care
- emotional support
- Help in job search
Without your help, we know in advance that we will not be able to continue this process. Please help us to give dignity and hope for a peaceful life in our country.
All values make a difference and make us eternally grateful!
