Case study: Christmas with children in Ukraine
‘My dream is to have peace over our heads.’ Yuliia*, 7, Ukraine
At seven years old, Yuliia* remembers leaving her beloved home with her family and enduring a traumatic journey to flee the conflict in Ukraine.
When Yuliia’s family arrived at a safe village, they faced the challenge of surviving the freezing winter with few resources to stay warm. Even as a young child, Yuliia understood the danger of the harsh winters. And with very little money, Yuliia’s family faced a Christmas without presents and the absolute essentials to keep warm.
Thankfully, with gifts like Cheerful children’s stocking, CAFOD’s local church partner was able to provide Yuliia and her siblings with warm clothes, like hats and gloves, and Christmas gifts like books and toys.
