Ukraine Emergency Response

SCOOP has launched an emergency campaign as a response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

We at SCOOP, like most of you are lost for words watching the current events unfolding across Ukraine. With many of the biggest NGOs halting operations in the region, we at SCOOP have decided the best way to support the people of Ukraine is to do it ourselves.

In tandem with providing displaced young people with educational, psychological and cultural support, SCOOP have responded to complex crises in Syria, Iraq and Yemen to provide people with medical equipment, financial support and other essentials and from next week we will be in the region doing just that.

We will be providing support in many different ways -

 

Medical Supplies

Calvin is headed to Poland on Sunday 6th March to provide Medical Supplies and Humanitarian aid to Ukrainian people fleeing. If you are in a position to supply medical equipment please get in touch directly with [email protected].

 

Support for Displaced Ukrainian People

We are supporting displaced children and refugees in transit from Ukraine to Poland and Ireland.

 

In Ireland

SCOOP are assisting with flights and temporary accommodation for families and solo travellers who are fleeing to Ireland. We have started a database of host families who are willing to help Ukrainian people fleeing the war with accommodation.

If you are in a position to offer accommodation in Ireland, please fill out this short form and we will be in touch as soon as we can.

If you or someone you know is in need of accommodation in Ireland please complete this request form so we can match you with a host family as quickly as possible. The form is available in English, Polish and Ukrainian.

In Poland

SCOOP have developed a specific campaign for Ukrainian Children which you can read about here. Working in a network of local NGOs, SCOOP will help provide a safe space and support for Ukrainian children arriving in Poland.

 

 

If you have any questions about this campaign please feel free to contact Katie – [email protected] or 0858158797. Keep up to date with SCOOPs development via our Instagram and Facebook.
