In a single night, hundreds of families lost everyhing

July 23, 2026 by CYOA Administrator

Through the Ukraine Crisis Appeal, Australians are helping our partners Caritas Ukraine provide life-saving emergency assistance to families caught in the relentless wave of Russian attacks.

When russian missiles struck Vyshneve, near Kyiv, homes were reduced to ashes, streets were engulfed in flames, and families fled through smoke, shattered glass and burning buildings.

Oleksii returned from work to find his home gone. Maria described the sky turning black with smoke as explosions shook the city around her.

The attack claimed lives, injured dozens, displaced hundreds of people and left entire neighbourhoods devastated.

From the very first hours, Caritas Ukraine and Caritas Kyiv were on the ground—providing emergency food to first responders and evacuated residents during rescue operations, ensuring people received essential support when they needed it most.

Your support of the Ukraine Crisis Appeal makes this response possible. Together with trusted partners like Caritas Ukraine, we are helping provide emergency relief, hope and practical assistance to families facing the unimaginable.

Please continue to stand with Ukraine through a tax deductible donation: https://www.ukrainecrisisappeal.org/
