The war in Ukraine that followed its illegal and unjustified invasion by the Russian Federation keeps raging after three and a half months. With it, millions of refugees have fled the country, with EU countries – Ukraine’s closest geographical neighbors – becoming their natural escape.
Against this backdrop, Generation 2004 continues its engagement to support Ukrainian refugees and has joined the joint action of all trade unions for Ukrainian refugees in Belgium. Below we share this action and we also ask colleagues to keep helping. It is still extremely necessary to make sure the victims of this war feel supported.
Ukrainian refugees and Generation 2004 thank you for your help!
EMERGENCY SUPPORT FOR UKRAINIAN REFUGEES IN BELGIUM
Dear colleagues,
Thanks to you and all your efforts, an exceptional solidarity action is helping Ukrainian refugees in Belgium.
You have brightened the future of refugee fathers, mothers and children by providing them with basic necessities.
The current emergency is to collect ONLY baby food and non-perishable food for adults.
With the help of the OIB and the central mail service, you can now drop off your donations directly to the mail room in each Commission building. Please avoid fragile or breakable packaging to ensure smooth transportation.
If you do not work at the Commission, you can go to the help centre located at Rue de Theux, 49 in 1040 Etterbeek.
Every gesture counts. Also, it is now possible to contribute via the GRAACE/UKRAINE account n° BE20 0017 6787 9156 with the communication “ACTION INTERSYNDICALE UKRAINE”.
This action is made possible by the support of all trade unions, as well as the Commission services (OIB) and, more recently, the pensioners’ association SEPS, and we hope to have the support of AIACE soon.
