Caritas CR: We will support health and help centres in Ukraine

The recent unrest and bloodshed in Kiev has affected not only the residents of the city, but has significantly influenced the lives of people from other regions of Ukraine. Having received a grant from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, further help from Caritas will therefore be directed specifically on Western Ukraine.

Appreciation of our partner in Ukraine

Caritas Kolomyja, one of the partners of Archdiocesan Caritas of Olomouc (ACHO) in Ukraine, won a Ukrainian national competition “Dobročinna Ukrajina in 2012”, in the category of “ Philanthropist – the best regional charity organisation”. ACHO has supported this partner for more than six years now and so is extremely pleasured by this award together with the workers from Kolomyja.
