An overview of the humanitarian situation in Ukraine and neighbouring countries, and the DEC response, as of June 2022.

In Kharkiv, Ukraine's second largest city, DEC funds are supporting an innovative project that delivers regular food baskets to people's homes, thanks to a network of volunteer cyclists. 

The Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) has seen an incredibly generous response to its Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal to help people affected by the conflict. The appeal has now raised over £120 million in five days, including £25 million matched by the UK Government.

The British public has helped raise £100 million in just four days to support the Disaster Emergency Committee’s Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal – the equivalent of more than £1 million an hour since the official launch on Thursday.

The total includes generous donations from Her Majesty the Queen, HRH The Prince of Wales and The Duke of Cambridge.

Donations to the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal are reaching people in Ukraine and those who have fled to neighbouring countries. Find out the many ways DEC charities and their local partners are helping.
