The Ukrainian Food Banks Federation is a non-profit charitable organization that collects food products from producers, trade organizations, catering establishments, and private individuals and delivers them to those in need.
The board chairperson of the UFBF, Dmytro Shkrabatovskyi, and the President of the National Union of Journalists of Ukraine (NUJU), Sergiy Tomilenko, agreed on product support for journalists in the regions of Ukraine, primarily those who have been relocated and those who work in the front-line territories.
Each set includes 26 items. The weight of the set is approximately 16 kilograms.
In the near future, 50 sets each will be transferred to the Zaporizhzhia and Dnipro Journalists’ Solidarity Centers, where they will be distributed to colleagues in need.
Colleagues, if you know which media persons are in a difficult situation and need food support, let the Union team know through our social networks.
As earlier reported, the Journalists’ Solidarity Centers is an initiative of the NUJU implemented with the support of the International and European Federations of Journalists and UNESCO. The initiative is designated to help media representatives working in Ukraine during the war. The Centers operate in Kyiv, Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi, Zaporizhzhia, and Dnipro and provide journalists with organizational, technical, legal, psychological, and other types of assistance.
