1.Background
During 2024, Ukraine has faced increased mandatory evacuations due to intensified hostilities and attacks in frontline areas, putting civilians at immediate risk. According to UN OCHA Protection Cluster partners, over 500,000 people still require transportation and access to essential services, while funding for local organizations supporting evacuations continues to decrease.

Team4UA is a Ukrainian charitable organization established in March 2022, working with UN agencies, international partners, and local actors to deliver high-impact humanitarian assistance across Ukraine.
