Monetary donations to support the Ukrainian rail sector

Global Ukraine Rail Task Force

Raise Funds For The Rail Sector In This Crisis

After Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine, the rail system has become the lifeline of the Ukrainian people as well as its humanitarian and war effort. But Russia is deliberately targeting it – damaging the infrastructure and injuring or killing its workers.  More than 400 rail workers have been killed so far (by May 2023) in their mission to keep the network running in the current wartime atmosphere.

The Ukrainian rail sector needs your help in this crisis! Donation proceeds provide food packages for rail workers and their families in the war zone. Each one consists of flour, pasta, rice, salt, corn and wheat grits, oil, canned fish and meat, pate, tea, condensed milk, sugar, and biscuits/cookies.

Generous donors have made it possible to provide 6000 packages so far, but 24000 more are still necessary.  For more details, watch the short video below.

Each package costs about 15 Pounds Sterling / 17 Euros / 20 US Dollars, and all the ingredients are sourced in Ukraine itself

We ask you to donate either just one package (donating small amounts is possible!) or alternatively as many as possible.  You can do so in several leading currencies (all shown to the right of this page)

Click to the right of this page on “PayPal” in order to donate with any debit or credit card or with your PayPal account, selecting the currency of your choice.

Alternatively you can also make a direct bank transfer (details are also on the right of this page)
