- Bread of Life continues to be instrumental in assisting refugees in
Kalisz Poland.
"Bread of Life recently opened a Ukrainian Relief store for refugees inside one of the largest shopping malls in the city. It’s been a great success in already helping more than 1,000 refugee get clothing, diapers, and household goods. The refugees are able to load their shopping carts and check out of the store paying absolutely nothing. The store has employed 5 Ukrainian women who are refugees themselves. Giving Hope! We have a truck that will soon leave for Ukraine. A couple of the factories that we are working with to get aid are behind filling orders due to the supply chain. They tell us soon we will have everything. Once we have the last orders the truck will be heading for Ukraine. I’m really excited as this will be providing hope and aid straight to cities like Bucha and others devastated by the Russian military. This will also complete the wonderful gift of $25,000 donated by PCI. I wanted to ask if it would be possible to transfer another $25,000 to continue the aid both in Poland and in Ukraine. The dollar is very strong right now against the Polish Zlotchy and would be a good time to exchange funds. Thank you again for your generosity to life and to the Ukrainian refugees."
