#FootballForPeace

Back in 2022, to support the ones who needed the most help, EFDN came up with #FootballForPeace truck which delivered all kinds of donations collected by European Football clubs to ‘Shelter Centre’ in the stadium located in the city centre of Lviv.

As part of this shipment, more than five tons of goods from six countries: Portugal, Poland, England, Scotland, Germany, and Belgium have been transported to the Lviv Arena. The humanitarian cargo includes food, medicines, clothes, baby food, sleeping bags, blankets, and hygiene items.

EFDN together with Shakhtar Social and Legia Foundation (Warsaw) launched an appeal for humanitarian aid in support of Ukraine and its inhabitants. The donations were initially collected by or shipped to EFDN and via the Legia Warsaw hub and transferred to the Shelter Center in Lviv, Ukraine.
