October was extremely tragic for Zaporizhzhya. Every night dozens of explosions echoed through the city, and in the morning residents would learn from the news in what neighborhood the entrance of a nine-story panel building or a historic building had collapsed this time. Dozens of civilians were killed and hundreds wounded.
At this time, we began a large-scale evacuation of people outside the region and abroad. The first bus to Poland left on 13 October. Since then, we have paid for 60 buses, which took 2,608 people to Poland and Romania. Mostly, these are mothers with children and the elderly. In addition to buses, we individually helped 77 families to leave for different European countries. Now these people are safe - without sirens, explosions and threats to life.
In total, we have already spent 95 000 $ on the evacuation. We received donations for this good deed from different parts of our planet - from Latvia, Finland, Australia, America, Chile, New Zealand and many, many others. Every second comment contained the words “Glory to Ukraine!”, words of gratitude for our work and wishes for victory. This is so touching!
The evacuation continues. We strive to rationally use funds, so now the buses we paid for start from Lviv and Chernivtsi. We sincerely thank everyone who supports our work! Together we do incredible things and bring victory closer!
