Some weeks after the Ukraine war started, upon learning that the SOS Animal Shelter in Kyiv, Ukraine, needed financial assistance, our Association members from Germany, Poland, Austria, and Mongolia made two deliveries of cash, vegan food, medicines, and other necessities to the Shelter at their own expense. The value of the aid totaled approximately €21,500 (about US$21,540). The first delivery was made through German entrepreneur, dog-people trainer, and animal-people rights activist Sascha Winkler, who was evacuating animal-people from Ukraine and its war zones and bringing deliveries to people and animal-people shelters in need.From Medyka, Poland, on the country’s south-eastern border with Ukraine, a relief team comprised of our international Association members, provided details about their relief activities starting from April. “[…] Our priorities have been to get as much aid as possible into Ukraine, particularly the much-requested food items, including tinned and instant vegan meals, vegan snacks and water, as well as medicine and other materials. We also regularly ask at the border and refugee centers what is needed that we can help with. We have been frequenting the local train station, providing vegan food and drinks as necessary, and also buying train tickets and giving cash to those in need. Also, vegan food and water have been sent into Ukraine through various drivers who cross the borders to Lviv, Lutsk, Kyiv and other major cities. We have established a good relationship with a local Ukrainian school in Poland, which has seen a doubling of students in the last two months. We have delivered student supplies and have taken a class of Ukrainian teenagers out for a day trip of sightseeing, a vegan lunch, and nature walks. […] Thank You, Master, for the opportunity to serve, and we pray this war ends as soon as possible. From Medyka Team, Poland”Master has a quick reply to the team: “Loving souls, we are all so pleased that you have tried your best to help fellow beings in their hour of real need. We have reserved €100,000 now, for such action. Please contact the CP (contact person) to know where to get it as need arises. May God soon restore PEACE and NORMALCY to the deserving Ukraine People. Bless your hearts. In Heaven’s Grace, Embracing you, and sending love to all you meet.”At the Poland/Ukraine border, several organizations established permanent bases, including Scouts, Cardena, Convoi de la Solidarité (Solidarity Convey), Siobahns Trust and Youth with a Mission. Our relief team regularly visits these groups to find out their needs and provide the required supplies, thus enabling these organizations to continue their noble work for the refugees, as well as their animal-people companions.
