The war has driven thousands of Ukrainians from their homes. Many of them are and will continue to seek refuge in Poland and in our city. They need basic personal hygiene products, food products and warm coats – things that will help them find their way in the new reality and gain strength for the coming days.
We are in contact with the Polish Red Cross in Gdansk. A collection of the most necessary things for our friends from Ukraine, the list of which we have from the Polish Red Cross, is starting in Olivia. Let’s help together!
You can bring everything you need to Olivia Prime B from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. You can enter there without a building card. Entrance from Sopot.

HOW TO PACK?
- According to support organizations, it is best to sort the donations properly beforehand, instead of lumping them together.
- It is better to use several smaller bags/cartons that are easy to pack and carry.
- It is also a good idea to properly describe each package, marking e.g. basic categories: medicines/ food/ blankets/ cosmetics/ household chemicals.
