Story

As we're all aware, intense conflict in Ukraine is threatening the lives and livelihoods of civilians across the country, causing millions to flee. Homes have been destroyed. Essential services have been hit. Families have been separated. People have been injured. Lives have been lost.

We've looked at ways Drive can support those affected in Ukraine, and it is clear that monetary donations are most essential. These do not affect the supply chain in any way and can ensure aid gets where it is most needed.

DEC charities and their local partners are in Ukraine and across the border in the neighbouring countries. They are working to meet the immediate needs of all people fleeing with food, water, medical assistance, protection and trauma care.

£30 could provide essential hygiene supplies for three people for one month.  £50 could provide blankets for 4 families to keep them warm. £100 could provide emergency food for two families for one month. So, just think what our donation could do.

We're aiming to reach a total of £50,000 across the sites. Drive will match all donations, so for every £1 you raise, we'll contribute a further £1. Get involved, get your friends, family and customers involved and let's join together to do everything we can do support this cause.
