STELP is helping since
2022
War has been raging in Ukraine for almost two years. The biggest sufferers are civilians. Countless of them have been staying in cellars for weeks and months in order to protect themselves from the attacks of the Russian armed forces. The frontline is dynamic and constantly shifting.
Some people simply do not want to leave their homes, they are afraid or often too weak due to age or illness to dare to escape. Together with partner organisations, STELP is searching cellars and shelters to find the people who would like to leave the area after all. Since the beginning of the war, thousands of people have been evacuated and brought to a safe place.
So far, STELP has delivered over 170 trucks full of relief supplies to Ukraine. The Stuttgart-based aid organization has meanwhile established a functioning supply chain and supply structure. In Kiev, STELP operates a transhipment warehouse with its partner organization Ukraine Alive. “These logistics centres are urgently needed, because what started as a joint collection campaign at the Stuttgart Kulturinsel at the beginning of the war is now strictly timed logistics work,” explains Serkan Eren. Not only food and medical products are transported, but also hospital beds or Christmas packages for orphans have already been loaded by STELP.
Since the beginning of the war, more and more people are losing their homes. They are on the run or their homes have been destroyed in the war process. The NGO “Leo States Ukraine” offers these people free temporary accommodation in container cities in the region around Lviv. In addition, Leo States equips schools and kindergartens with shelters. We support these projects financially and with donations in kind such as generators, and together with Leo States we have financed a shelter for a school in the Brovary district, in the Kiev region.
In the “7 Fields” school, an educational and safe environment is created for 34 children and psychological rehabilitation is made possible. The children treated there are mainly from the Donetsk, Luhansk, Chernihiv or Kherson regions, some of whom had to live under Russian occupation themselves or lost a parent in the war. They now receive lessons and professional psychological support at the school.
Our founder Serkan was on a mission on the front line with our partners from zhyva nadiya at the beginning of October 2023. There they provided needy people with food and relief supplies. You can find a video of the operation here.
