Support That Warms: Winter Assistance for Those in Need
Winter always brings new challenges, but it is especially harsh for those living in war-affected areas. The Luhansk Association of Organizations of Persons with Disabilities (LAOPD), in partnership with Solidar Suisse, is implementing the project “Guaranteed Support for the Population of Ukraine During the Winter Period,” funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC).
In frontline settlements, people face daily danger. Shelling, lack of heating, power outages, and water shortages have become a harsh reality. Many homes are damaged or destroyed, and evacuation is often not an option. Under such conditions, even the most basic necessities become critically important.
To support those in the most vulnerable situations, LAOPD is distributing winter humanitarian kits to those who need them the most. These include families headed by persons with disabilities, large families with children, and elderly or single individuals struggling to survive.
Aid is already being delivered to settlements in the Kharkiv region, with the next phase covering the Donetsk region. In total, 108 households will receive assistance as part of this project.
All kits are distributed free of charge, and the distribution process is carefully documented to ensure transparency and proper allocation.
We cannot stop the war, but we can make sure that those left near the frontlines have the support they need to get through the winter. Thanks to our partners, Solidar Suisse and SDC, we continue to provide critical aid to those who need it most.
💙 A huge thank you to everyone involved in this initiative! Together, we are stronger!
