Partners in Freedom grew from the Warrnambool community’s deep desire to help the Ukrainian people, who are being subjected to the brutal war in their homeland.
Although located on the other side of the world, in Western Victoria, Warrnambool’s support for Ukrainians was reflected in an overwhelming response to a call for clothing donations during the initial stages of the war.
It was soon recognised that financial donations were a more efficient and effective means of supporting Ukraine from afar.
Partners in Freedom has since joined with Fondukrajina to ensure donations directly reach those in need.
Partners in Freedom would like to invite people from Warrnambool, the broader Australian community, and across the world to join us in continuing to support those suffering from this senseless and protracted war.
