Ukraine Refugee Relief

CubCrafters is reaching out to our friends in the aviation and backcountry flying communities to help provide assistance to refugees from Ukraine that are taking shelter in Poland. We’ve all seen the horrifying and heart-wrenching images of the war that has come to Ukraine, and with much of the civilian population now fleeing the country to escape the brutality of the conflict, we want to help. More than two million refugees have left the country, and that number continues to grow on a daily basis.

 

The largest number of those fleeing the war are going to Poland. The Polish people and government have opened their country to their neighbors in Ukraine in an amazing way, and we believe that CubCrafters is in a position to help. Our main European office has been based in Rzeszów, Poland since 2012, which is right in the middle of the refugee crisis, less than 100 KM away from the Ukrainian border. The staff at CubCrafters Europe, being located right there on the ground where so much of this is happening, are uniquely qualified to know and ensure in real time that any funds raised go to meet the most urgent of those humanitarian needs.

 

All of the funds raised as part of this effort will be used to help feed, shelter, clothe, support, and otherwise care for Ukrainian refugees, the majority of them women and children, that are crossing the Polish border. The need is great, and we just hope that we and our friends in the aviation community can come together to make a small but important difference in the lives of people fleeing this war. Poland has a vibrant grassroots aviation community, our brothers and sisters there are all pitching in, let's help them!
