More than 60,000 care packages shipped to Ukraine
Since the beginning of April 2022, private customers have been able to send care packages free of charge from Germany to Ukraine to support people who are in urgent need of food, medical products, household items (such as blankets) and hygiene articles (such as diapers).
All they have to do is download the specially prepared label addressed to "Humanitarian Aid Ukraine" from the DHL website and post their labelled parcels of up to 20 kg at a local post office.
DHL then transports the parcels by truck from Germany to the transfer points in Poland, where they are handed over to Ukrposhta, the Ukrainian national postal service. From there, Ukrposhta transports the relief supplies into Ukraine and distributes them where they are most needed. In this way, DHL has shipped more than 60,000 care packages to Ukraine from customers in Germany to date. (ben)
