The Ukraine Crisis Appeal, Australia’s largest tax-deductible fundraising effort for Ukraine, is urging food-lovers and retailers around Australia to take part in an ‘Eat Chicken Kyiv’ fundraiser for war-torn Ukraine.
Andrea Palmer, co-organiser of the event, said, “The idea is simple. Throw a Chicken Kyiv lunch or dinner party and ask your guests to donate the cost of a restaurant meal to the Ukraine Crisis Appeal.
“Anyone can do it anywhere in the world. And best of all – all funds raised go to the Ukraine Crisis Appeal, which has raised $6.7 million since February 2022 to provide essential humanitarian aid such as food, hygiene kits, medical aid and accommodation” she added.
John Nichol, co-organiser, explains, “Hosts can register with us and receive a free entertainment pack complete with inspirational recipes, decoration ideas and printable Ukrainian flags.”
“Retailers can also register their involvement in the campaign, and receive marketing support including posters and mini Ukrainian toothpick flags to decorate Chicken Kyivs.”
Ukraine Сrisis Appeal is a collaboration between the Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organisations (AFUO), Rotary Australia World Community Service, Caritas Ukraine and Rotary Kyiv.
