Donate to Ukraine
Help the people in Ukraine by donating through Build and Restore International to purchase and mobilize much needed supplies directly to the Ukrainian people.
Build and Restore International is helping deliver urgent humanitarian aid to the vulnerable during Ukraine’s crisis. Our volunteers are in rotation traveling to Poland from the United States. They are ready to assist refugees coming across the border. Some are traveling into Ukraine to bring aid and assistance in some of the western cities.
Prayers are needed for the people of Ukraine, as well as for our volunteers who are serving.
Where there is evil to destroy, God sends his soldiers to Build and Restore.
Update #11
Even though the news has been fairly quiet regarding the war in Ukraine, it is still ravaging the lives of the local people. Most of the world is celebrating the New Year and welcoming it with joy and gladness. But for the people in Ukraine, they are praying for this war and devastation to end. They are looking for food, for warmth, for hope. Hope that tomorrow will be different, that tomorrow they can rebuild their lives.
From the constant trickle of donations BRI has been receiving, we continue our efforts to help the people. Winter has arrived, and with the constant bombing, many are without power and heat. Our most recent effort was purchasing wool blankets from Switzerland and delivering them to the Ukrainians. As our team distributed them amongst the local, they could see their dreary eyes brighten with the warmth that we are providing them.
Again, we can’t do this without you! Thank you for your continued support!

We want to thank each one of you for your continued prayers and support in our efforts to help the people of Ukraine. We have continued to ship food, supplies, and transport people out to safe areas. We are especially thankful for your donations of much needed medical supplies!
With the winter season setting in, many will need help to stay warm and have food this winter season. Therefore, we continue to look for supplies to ship to Ukraine from the US and neighboring countries. We sincerely thank you for your prayers and support!

The last several months have been very busy for our teams in Ukraine. With the purchase of an additional vehicle, we’re able to transport more food, supplies, and passengers. Donations of much needed medical supplies continue to be shipped to Ukraine from the US and neighboring countries. The mobile medical clinics continue to help people in need. Again, we sincerely thank you for your contributions and support!
Along with pictures of the work our teams are conducting, we’ve received more images of some of the devastation the war has brought on. Our hearts are heavy for our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Please continue to keep Ukraine in your daily prayers!

Update #8
During this past month, our teams have been able to consistently help Ukrainians, thanks to your support! A big need was met when two used ambulances were purchased to help serve Ukrainians unable to visit the clinic. The ambulances staffed with doctors are actively working in serving the needs of the people at this time. We are grateful that you helped make this possible.
Food, medical, and other supplies continue to be distributed to cities and villages all over Ukraine. The people are very grateful and thank you for your contributions.
The devastations of this war are visible all over Ukraine. There is so much pain and grief, so much loss. Your generous contributions are not only fulfilling physical needs but they are also providing strength and hope to those we are serving. Thank you.

Update #7
We have a team in Fort Worth and the greater Dallas-Forth Worth (DFW) area leading a project of collecting medical supplies and baby formula donations. Build and Restore International works with direct contacts in Angelia Clinic in Chernivtsi and Kyiv, Ukraine. We supply all donated items directly to Angelia Clinic.
Due to war in Ukraine there is an immense shortage of baby formula. Many babies are born prematurely, and many mothers do not have any milk supply due to stress. It is one of the most agonizing feelings, not to be able to feed a baby. Our mission is to deliver healthy nutrition to as many babies as possible. Together with Arlington SDA Church and many amazing hearts came together to donate baby formula. 800 pounds of baby formula was donated in a 3 week timeframe! We are amazed with generous donations of 204 cans for baby formula. 800 pounds, (12,800 ounces) will make approximately 3,185 baby bottles.

Our DFW team is also working with medical professionals and accepting medical supplies through an Amazon shop list. Medical professionals, clinics and hospitals were able to donate items such as surgical gowns, shoes, gauze, dressing, banges, antibacterial ointment, facemasks, face shields, syringes, glucose meters and blood sugar/diabetic supplies, IV lines, antibacterial, variety of medications, and more. Also, through Amazon wish list, we continue to receive a variety of medical emergency supplies such as blood clotting powder, iodine, glucose monitors, gauze, chest seal, tourniquets, emergency compression bandages, resuscitation bags, trauma shears, CPR rescue masks, and more.
Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there is a big need for medical supplies and medications in a variety of sectors throughout Ukraine. All donations collected in the DFW area are delivered directly to our contact in Chernivtsi. This is a particularly good location since the city of Chernivtsi is located in the western part of Ukraine, which became a green zone for many refugees. We are working closely with Angelia Clinic in Chernivtsi, and understand their current needs. Once Angelia clinic receives donations they prioritize and distribute to their sister clinic in Kyiv and hospital in Chernivtsi. Since the war broke out, Algelia clinic began to conduct a mobile clinic that serves villages in the greater region of Chernivtsi. They are able to diagnose, treat patients and provide medications. Also, they gladly agreed to distribute baby formula to those regions as well.

Thank you all for your continuing support of the people of Ukraine during this difficult time. For the past two weeks, we have been working with many different teams across Ukraine to equip them with much needed supplies. Our volunteers, which include our family and friends still living in Ukraine, have been working around the clock to bring aid and relief to those that are suffering. Trucks and vans are being transported full of supplies into the cities most affected, and are returning full of refugees that are seeking to flee to safer areas.
Again, we thank you for all your generous contributions! They are making a difference!

So far we’ve been able to easily provide immediate support for the refugees through food, blankets, clothing, etc. Many local churches have been hosting these people, and are very grateful for the resources we are providing them. The first wave of medical supplies was obtained in Romania and is being transported across the border into Ukraine. We have purchased more medical supplies that have been requested, and they are en route. A medical team of volunteers will be arriving next week in Europe to travel into Ukraine to provide medical support. Thank you so much for your generous donations. We continue to do everything we can to help the people of Ukraine.

UPDATE #2
Refugees at a train station
We praise God for a successful mission of our first team into Ukraine. They’ve been able to help hundreds of people with basic supplies and transport. We are currently unable to purchase supplies directly in Ukraine because they are all sold out. Our next plan is to purchase in neighboring countries and deliver to Ukraine as soon as possible. It has been a challenge connecting with people on the ground in the midst of this crisis and chaos, and connecting them with the necessary resources. The good news is that we have several contacts we are working with directly, including family members and close friends that are still living there, who are helping with the logistics of bringing in the necessary supplies, as well as helping all the refugees.
We sincerely thank you for all your spiritual and financial support during such a hard time. The people of Ukraine thank you.
