Our Mission at UAid Direct

In the shadow of war, we stand with the forgotten—the vulnerable, the overlooked, and the invisible. Our mission is simple but urgent: to bring hope and healing to those affected by the conflict in Ukraine through essential medical aid, community projects, and reconstruction efforts.

We are a dedicated team of international and Ukrainian volunteers, doing all we can to reach those in greatest need. Children in orphanages and kindergartens.  The lonely elderly in front-line villages.  Families shattered by war.  Women and men living with both visible and invisible scars—disabilities of the body and mind.

This vital work is only possible because of people like you. Our unwavering commitment to transparency and due diligence earns the trust of global supporters, ensuring every donation reaches those who need it most.

We fill the gap where larger organizations can’t reach, standing as part of a growing ecosystem of grassroots efforts that empower communities to become self-sustainable in the long run. We are resilient and adaptable, driven by the ever-changing needs of those we serve and the generosity of donations we receive.

The war may have broken their homes, but with your help, we can rebuild their hope. Will you stand with us?

Our Approach

We work in three simple ways:

Receiving Request

We receive many requests for assistance. We start by vetting the individual or organisation to ensure it’s genuine, and then we triage the request and start working to secure the items needed.

Sourcing & Storage

Our warehouse team in Poland will then check to see if we have the items in storage. If so, it can be assigned for delivery. If not, we will work to secure the item through donation, or through fundraising to purchase new.

Transport& Followup

Once our sourcing team is ready, the goods are labelled and loaded with one of our drivers. We use a network of trusted Ukrainian and international drivers to deliver goods across Ukraine.
