Earlier this month, Logistics Plus Poland and Logistics Plus Ukraine worked together to successfully deliver over $100,000 worth of humanitarian aid to two Ukraine organizations. The materials were collected, packaged, and containerized at the Logistics Plus ETN warehouse in cooperation with Erie for Ukraine. The shipment was then transported to the Logistics Plus Poland warehouse, where it was de-containerized and transported across the border to Ukraine for final delivery to the following two organizations located in the Lviv region:
- A National Scout Organization
- A Maternity Hospital & Children’s Shelter
Photographs of the deliveries can be viewed below.
Here is a copy of the PDF flyer that was created to raise awareness for the program:
And here is an excerpt from a letter from the shelter expressing their gratitude:
