Children from Ukraine, who stay with us, most probably want to be safe now. Those who have been with us longer managed to get to know us, like us and smile more often. The kids who have been with us for a few days are still distrustful and it hurts us to see the sadness and uncertainty in their eyes. We are trying our best to provide them with good conditions, tasty food and toys, but we know that it is still not enough. Children are innocent of the decisions that are made by someone, somewhere far away from their desk. Children should have a chance to live their childhood surrounded by love, respect and sense of security. And we are responsible for giving them all the best!

As a result of our efforts, the Polish Province of the Camillian Fathers and the Camillian Social Welfare Mission obtained a grant to implement a project to help refugees from Ukraine. The funds will be used to provide accommodation in our Houses in Ursus and Buraków, to send humanitarian transports to Ukraine and to provide direct financial support to refugees in Poland.
