Just 17 Euros Can Help Feed A Ukrainian Railway Worker’s Family In The Warzone – And 24,000 More Families Need This Help
Today, the Ukraine Global Rail Task Force continues its campaign to provide food for railway workers at the frontline of Russia’s War of Aggression.
Recently, €100,000 of donations were spent on food packages that are currently being distributed to 6,000 rail workers. Unfortunately, there are still 24,000 more railway workers on the frontline who have not received one yet. Therefore: even more financial donations are needed.
Global Ukraine Rail Task Force Heads to Ukraine to Hand Over 1st Donation Cheque – But Even More Is Needed
6 April 2023: This week, representatives of the Global Ukraine Rail Task Force and its donors travelled to Kyiv at the invitation of Ukrainian Railways (“UZ”) to present a cheque to the value of €100,000 to the Ukrainian Trade Union of Railwaymen and -women, in order to purchase 6,000 food packages that are currently being distributed to railway workers and their families at the frontline of the war.
Call for donations – Help Ukraine’s rail workers in their critical mission
The Global Ukraine Rail Task Force has set up a donation campaign dedicated to helping the Ukrainian rail sector. The proceeds collected will contribute to the well-being of Ukrainian rail workers (protective gear, financial aid to the families of the deceased, etc.).
Spendenaufruf: Unterstützen Sie die Eisenbahnhelden in dieser Krise
Die Eisenbahn ist in dieser Krise die Lebensader für Flüchtlinge, Medikamente und andere humanitäre Hilfe. Bereits mehr als 100 EisenbahnerInnen sind bei ihrem Einsatz für die Aufrechterhaltung des Bahnbetriebs gestorben. Darüber hinaus wurde in der vergangenen Woche berichtet, dass Russland seine Angriffe auf die Eisenbahn verstärkt und damit die Anbindung der Ukraine an die Außenwelt ins Visier nimmt – ein weiteres Beispiel dafür, wie gefährdet der Eisenbahnsektor ist!
Deshalb bieten wir Ihnen jetzt die Möglichkeit, die Eisenbahnhelden in dieser Krise direkt zu unterstützen.
Dabei arbeiten wir zusammen mit der globalen Wohltätigkeitsorganisation United Way (unitedway.org), ihrem deutschen Zweig PHINEO (phineo.org) und dessen Ukraine-Programm WE-AID (we-aid.org).
Weitere Informationen zu den Spendenmöglichkeiten finden Sie in der Pressemitteilung, indem Sie auf den folgenden Link klicken.
Dieser Spendenaufruf wurde von der Multinational Support Ukraine Rail Task Force veröffentlicht, einer Partnerschaft von führenden Vertretern der weltweiten Eisenbahnindustrie unter dem Vorsitz von Jolene Molitoris, der ehemaligen Generaldirektorin der US-Eisenbahnbehörde Federal Rail Administration.
(United States) Call for donations: support Ukraine’s Rail Heroes in this crisis
The Ukraine Railroad is the lifeline for refugees, medicine, food and other humanitarian aid. Already more than 100 rail workers have died keeping the railroad running. Earlier this week, Russia bombed five railroad stations in central and western Ukraine, killing people and causing disruption - another example of how vulnerable this life-saving rail service is!
This is why we are now offering the chance to directly support all of the railway heroes! We are working together with the global charitable organisation United Way (unitedway.org), its German branch PHINEO (phineo.org/en) and its Ukraine program WE-AID to provide targeted help to the Ukrainian Railroad.

This call for donations has been issued by the Multinational Support Ukraine Rail Task Force, a partnership of leaders from the worldwide rail industry chaired by Jolene Molitoris, former US Federal Railroad Administrator.
