Mayday Ukraine

Join us to make a global marina display and support Ukrainian families, it's easy - be part of something huge!

We want every boat, in every city, in every country to shine the anchor light for Ukraine on 31 May 2022.

Light up your anchor light NOW for Mayday Ukraine, encourage your whole marina to participate for culmination 31 May.

In support for the people of Ukraine we've already turned our yacht's anchor light on in Seaview Marina Wellington.  So far, it's a one boat effort, but everything starts with one, right?

The nautical community worldwide coordinating together can create the world's most visually stunning and recognisable fundraiser.

Our goal is to raise awareness and to support Ukrainian children affected by this devastating war.  We have chosen UNICEF to manage 100% of funds raised.

BY 31 May 2022 we hope that every boat in every marina, in every city, in every country will have lit up her anchor light.  It's a nautical candle of hope and support.

31st of May 2022, it's Mayday for Ukraine.

Let's make a global, unified, nautical display of support and create some critically needed financial assistance to help millions of confused and terrified Ukrainian children.

Light up your anchor light NOW for Mayday Ukraine, encourage your whole marina to participate, send us a photo, leave a comment, post something on https://twitter.com/MaydayUkraine and donate say one pound per foot of boat length or more to UNICEF using this link

Also - please spread the word, we're a massive community and together can make a massive contribution.  

Here's a link https://www.justgiving.com/maydayukraine to send to your crew, other boaties, club captains, marina managers, famous sailers etc.  Someone knows RNJ right?

All proceeds will be directed to UNICEF UK's Ukraine appeal, supporting children and families.

Where possible we encourage you to light up your anchor light for all of May, let's face it, this crisis, it's bigger than a day.  

Mayday, Mayday, Mayday for Ukraine every day in May.

Thank You!
