We are a group of Barclays UK employees and are standing, and walking, in solidarity with Ukraine. 500 km is roughly the distance from Kyiv to the nearest Polish border - a journey that too many have been forced to take. Collectively, we plan to virtually walk this journey (and possibly further), over the course of a week, and we ask for fundraising support from the wider community.

 

We are fundraising for the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal through the British Red Cross which is at the forefront of the humanitarian response in Ukraine. Please donate to this vital appeal, share widely with your network and help us reach families and communities in Ukraine and the border countries.

 

Your donation can go far in helping displaced people affected by the crisis:

£50 could provide blankets for four families

£100 could provide emergency food for two families for one month

Thank you for your help,

Note:
The Ukraine Crisis Appeal will support people in areas currently affected and those potentially affected in the future by the crisis. In the event that we raise more money than can be reasonably and efficiently spent, any surplus funds will be used to help us prepare for and respond to other humanitarian disasters anywhere in the world.
