We packed two more export containers with 40 pallets of more humanitarian goods and relief aid for Ukraine. Thank you to everyone who continues to donate to this important cause.
We especially appreciate First Ukrainian Pentecostal Church for leading the drive to collect most of these materials (we just provide the storage and handle the logistics).
As a reminder, you can still support the purchase and delivery of power generators for Ukraine at lpukrainerelief.com.

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:

After the Russian invasion of Ukraine began last year, and with your support, Logistics Plus helped raise over $660,000 for general Ukrainian relief efforts. Relief included the collection of humanitarian aid, clothes, food, and more.
As the war in Ukraine continues, many people and critical institutions, such as hospitals and schools, have limited or no power. So for 2023, Logistics Plus has shifted its fundraising efforts to purchase, transport, and install power generators to help Ukrainians in this time of need. 100% of donations will go toward power generators and power supplies for critical infrastructures, including schools, hospitals, and shelters — and Logistics Plus will cover all the shipping expenses.
Please visit https://lpukrainerelief.com/ to donate to the cause. Also, read this article on NBCnews.com that highlights the challenges.

Ukraine Relief Efforts
- Previous donations collected by Logistics Plus helped many people relocate from war zones and provided basic humanitarian supplies.
- An estimated 30% of Ukraine’s power stations have been destroyed.
- People are living in darkness. With winter arriving, the next three months will be long and cold. The people of Ukraine need our support.

The Logistics Plus Ukraine team successfully delivered drilling equipment from Kristiansand, Norway to Poltava, Ukraine. The shipment consisted of eight pieces, all being delivered to a high-profile Ukrainian drilling company. Due to the circumstances in Ukraine, this was no ordinary delivery. Logistics Plus Global Projects Director Bahadir Erdil shared his thoughts on LinkedIn (shown below) about the project and the bravery of the Ukraine team.
“Until today, I did not fully understand what bravery meant. My colleagues have now shown me.
Missiles raining not far from the offices and homes, insufficient water resources, no electricity, no internet, under the air raid sirens, sometimes working on the street, sometimes at a park…
Kudos to the Ukraine team for handling these projects and keeping the Ukrainian economy running. Slava Ukraini!”
