Join us in shining a Light for Ukraine!

Ukraine

Since the escalation of the war in February 2022, until mid-October 2024, nearly 6.8 million refugees4 from Ukraine have been recorded – 92 per cent of them in Europe. Inside Ukraine, an estimated 3.6 million people5 remain internally displaced as of October 2024.

Among the most vulnerable are also an estimated 12.6 million as of March 2025 people who were not displaced from their homes but who have been directly affected by the war – they have been wounded, their homes have been destroyed, their family members died.

Civilian infrastructure, such as power grids, water supply networks. hospitals transportation infrastructure, have been targeted by the daily missile attacks, severely disrupting people’s lives across the whole country, and particularly in the East.

About 3 600 educational institutions, including nearly

2 000 schools,

have suffered damage with some 371 educational facilities totally destroyed since the escalation of the war.
There were over

2 100 attacks

on healthcare facilities, which have claimed at least 197 lives, including those of health workers and patients, and injured many more, severely disrupting health services.

Exactly two weeks ago, on Thursday the 23rd of February, everything in the world changed. From the very first moments of the armed conflict, we have stood in solidarity with the people of Ukraine. We are all supporting our neighbours, providing shelter, helping mothers and children reach safety, keeping them warm, feeding them and supplementing the lack of basic products in the cities that are caught up in combat.

We want to show our solidarity with the struggling Ukraine by shining a “Light for Ukraine” every Thursday. Please get hold of specially prepared candles, which are not only a visible sign of our unity with Ukraine, but a very tangible means of supporting the activities undertaken by the Good Factory. The income from each candle will help us:

  • Provide humanitarian aid to those waiting to cross on the Ukrainian side of the border.
  • Dispatch more food, warm clothes and anything else the mayors of the war-torn cities ask for.
  • Meet the needs of mothers and children who are already safely in Poland, but need assistance in caring for their children, finding work, and finding their feet in a completely new, unfamiliar reality.

Join us in shining a Light for Ukraine! Slava Ukraini!
