Ukraine Aid

Since the begining of the war in Ukraine, we have seen a surge in the number of refugees in Germany.

As a response, we are actively on the field providing information and support for refugees seeking protection in Germany. We are working on a number of projects in cooperation with partners across the country with the sole aim of assisting the displaced and victims of the war in settling in their new-found cities.

On this page, you will see links to initiatives, information, and contact details of where you can receive support in Hamburg and cities in Germany.

We will do our best to update this information regularly.
