Lions Support the People of Ukraine

United through Kindness Together, Lions across the world – with support from Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF) – have united through kindness to support Ukraine refugees in a time of great need. “Alone, we can do so little; together we can do so much.”    Because of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, millions of people have been forced to leave their homes to escape the intense fighting and violence, creating one of the fastest moving refugee crises since World War II.  As the conflict continues, the number of families leaving Ukraine is expected to continue to rise.

In this time of great need, Lions and LCIF joined together to serve our communities during this humanitarian crisis. Lions in neighbouring countries immediately started to help Ukrainian refugees and displaced persons by collecting truckloads of food and essential resources as well as welcoming refugees into their homes.  Some Lions even crossed the border to take supplies to Ukrainians, delivering food and medicine, while others transported men, women, and children from the border to safe zones. Around the world, Lions have raised money, created care packages, and hosted vigils for Ukraine.  To magnify their service even more, Lions turned to LCIF for additional help.

Up to the end of March 2022, LCIF had awarded more than US$936,140 for refugee relief to Lions serving in Poland, Hungary, Romania, Austria, Slovakia, Armenia, Lithuania, Finland, Turkey, Bulgaria and Italy to support Ukrainian refugees who have crossed their borders. LCIF’s grant funds to date are expected to help more than 151,715 refugees.  Lions also awarded grants to Lions in the Ukraine to address the critical needs of people who remain in the country with about 6.5 million displaced people staying in Ukraine, according to United Nations data.
​
“Lions and LEOs around the world continue to grieve for those impacted by the ongoing conflict in Ukraine,” said LCIF Chairperson Dr. Jung Yul Choi.  “These LCIF grants are empowering our members to help families who have fled their homes to find safety and security during immensely challenging times.”
