2022 2023

Supporting our destination communities in their immediate need after a disaster is one of the key areas that our Foundation supports. In 2022, our contributions focused on providing hot meals and shelter for Ukrainian citizens fleeing from violence. These funds are channelled to our partner, the disaster relief NGO, REACT Disaster Response, who share our vision of providing much-needed support in hard-to-reach places. In 2022, we helped fund over 57,300 hot meals in Dnipro, Ukraine across three locations: at the train station for those arriving from conflict areas, at a centre for mothers and children in need of shelter and at a centre providing longer term support for people with disabilities.

Following natural or man-made disasters in our destinations, Exodus Travels remains committed to raising awareness, money and support to assist communities with relief efforts. FIND OUT MORE:
