From the beginning of the war until March 11, about 300,000 people fled from Ukraine to Moldova, although the authorities claimed to be able to accept only 10,000. By March 16, the number of refugees had decreased to 99,000 people, which was over 5% of the population of Moldova. Accommodation, fundraising and collection of basic necessities, medical and legal assistance became an acute problem.
Refugee support centres have been operating in Moldova since the beginning of the war. We have compiled a list of centres, fundraising campaigns, and other initiatives you can choose from to help refugees.
