"Sunflower Scotland" is a Volunteer Association registered under the rules of The Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations (SCVO), membership number 7225. We send aid directly to Eastern Ukraine into the red zone 0-20km from the front line in Kharkiv and Donetsk regions. We provide lifesaving food, aid and emotional support to the areas forgotten by the larger organisations. Charities generally stop delivering more than 50+km from the front; this is also where robust supply chains cease. Unfortunately, this means many of the most vulnerable people remain without access to food and supplies, and those with easy access to food in large cities have an abundance. We raise money with highly targeted aims in mind: 1) Delivery of aid from the UK using Ukrainian lorries: We leverage Ukrainian lorries that are delivering to the UK to send locally purchased bulk products & donated goods to the east of Ukraine. It supports the Scottish and Ukrainian economies and is the cheapest way to do it while ensuring we don’t impact fragile supply chains in Ukraine. 2) Lifesaving safety equipment for volunteers: We provide essential equipment to the volunteers that work with us on the front line. 3) Emergency aid for liberated regions: After a town or village has been liberated, the joy quickly turns to nerves when civilians realise that no one will deliver supplies for 4-8 weeks. We aim to be the first supplies in whenever possible. We work with a group of volunteers that visit regional areas just 40km from the Russian border, this region have been under constant bombardment since the beginning of the war. Our aid goes into 100 packets delivered daily using small vehicles 0-20km from the front line.
