On November 2, employees of the Synodal Department for Social and Humanitarian Affairs of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) delivered aid packages to the Pechersk and Solomiansky Veteran Councils, as reported on the Church Helps Telegram channel.
To commemorate Ukraine’s Liberation Day from Nazi occupation, the Primate's Foundation of the UOC, headed by His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry, "Mir Vam" (“Peace to You" - Trans.), prepared food packages for WW II veterans and defenders of Kyiv living in the capital.
The Synodal Department staff delivered 150 packages to the Pechersk and Solomiansky Veteran Councils.
Additional packages will be distributed to 119 World War II veterans in Ukraine directly by veteran organization staff, the Foundation reported.
“During these times of military challenges, it is crucial to remember and support those who once fought against Nazism and won, and who are now facing war again in their advanced years. We honor the war heroes, pray, and help,” said representatives of the UOC’s Social Charity Department.
As previously reported, the Favor Foundation provided humanitarian aid to the frontline city of Pokrovsk.
