Help me to transport Ukrainian refugees
Donation protected
Return Trip! Thanks to your amazing generosity, I have far more funds than I was able to use on my first trip. I'm returning to Poland from 14th-19th April and will continue the work you enabled me to do.
Whether that's ensuring people have safe travel to onward destinations, somewhere warm to sleep, or help with practical supplies such as phone chargers and suitcases, I'll make sure every penny of your donations are focused where they are needed most! (I'm covering my flights & hotel nights).
UPDATE: I ended up spending 18th - 23rd March on the border, and helped transport 17 refugees (and 2 pets!) to onward destinations.
**There is still so much we can do!!** Whether that's an additional trip, or donating directly to causes on the ground, your donations will make a huge difference.
I bought £1000 worth of much needed supplies for a Polish orphanage which had taken in 130 Ukrainian orphans, as well as 60 mobile-phone charging power banks so that refugees arriving on the border after a long journey could charge their phones and contact people they'd left behind, or make arrangements for travel.
Donations paid for 15 beds and bedding for those at Pzremysl, as well as food, drink, nappies etc for those arriving.
I paid for hotel accommodation & airfare for several refugees, as well as paying for taxis, food, drink etc for some of those I met.
On my final day, I spent £500 of donations on supplies for refugees at Krakow train station.
There is an ongoing humanitarian crisis - all funds will go towards transporting, housing and feeding those fleeing this invasion.
Hi, my name is Doug Pullen. I'm spending 18th - 21st March on the Ukrainian/Polish border, helping transport those fleeing the Russian invasion to their onward connections - whether that's a train station, coach station, airport, refugee centre, or family in Europe.

Women & children have been forced to walk many miles in very cold temperatures, so getting them from the border crossing at Medyka, or the nearest train station at Przemysl, will make a huge difference to them.
I've covered my flights & a hotel for 3 nights; any help towards car hire/fuel would be greatly appreciated.
I'll also use donations for drinks/meals/refreshments for any families that I'm transporting.
