Lublin Central Rotary Club have also bought thousands of pounds worth of medical supplies which, using their own resources and network, they have arranged to send directly to a hospital in Ukraine.

By sending donations directly to Lublin Rotary they can ensure all the money donated is used to support the Ukrainians and none is lost in administration costs.
