John's Red Bus Ukraine War Refugee Fundraiser

Hi my name is John Parker, I am of mixed European background (Polish and Italian). Growing up I spent time in various countries around the world.

When the Russia-Ukraine war escalated in February 2022 with Russia invading Ukraine, I was deeply affected and compelled to help.

The main reason for this is my granddad was a WWII war orphan at the age of 9. His family torn apart from the farm they lived in Eastern Poland. He lost both his parents, his father died fighting against the Red Army and his mother of starvation.

He was rescued by a charity organisation and sent to a child refugee camp near Mount Kilimanjaro in Kenya, Africa. After spending 6 years there his older brother (who went to fight in the Polish army) arranged for him to come to UK, that's where they both remained after the war ended.

 

I am fundraising for my humanitarian missions to help refugees and animals. Also to supply various aid and vehicles to the suffering people and defenders of Ukraine.

 

Please follow me on social media, just search John's Red Bus!

You will see I purchased a 15 seater minibus in March 2022, followed shortly after by a red panel van.

We have carried out over 20 missions to Ukraine. Many tonnes of aid supplied. Over 40 refugees rescued and transported to UK/European sponsor families. Over 20 animals rescued and transported throughout Europe. Also over 40 vehicles supplied to the defenders of Ukraine.

Any donations are greatly welcomed, the more I receive, the more I can do. Every little helps! :-)
