From Warehouse to Doorstep: Packing & Delivering 3,000 Kits

Pillar: Relief & Community | Activity: Packing & Distribution | Reach: 7 Oblasts

Humanitarian aid has two distinct sides: the industrial grind of the warehouse and the emotional reality of the delivery. This week, we want to show you both.

We successfully assembled and deployed 3,000 Standardized Relief Kits to communities across Kharkiv, Sumy, Zaporizhzhia, Mykolaiv, Vinnytsia, Dnipro, and Zhytomyr.

Part 1: The Human Engine Before a bag reaches a family, it has to be built. As you can see in the videos below, this requires a massive synchronized effort.

• The Grind: Running a packing line requires a team of 15 to 22 people working non-stop.

• The Pace: We aim for 100 bags per hour. Accounting for setup, pre-packing liquids (to prevent breakage), and restocking, our team pushes out 500 to 700 completed kits in a single day.

• The Weight: Each bag weighs approximately 11kg, packed densely with food and hygiene staples.

Part 2: The Delivery The second half of this post shows where that hard work goes. Those thousands of 11kg bags didn't stay in the warehouse long. They were immediately loaded onto trucks and dispatched to seven different regions.

The photos below show the final step of the journey: placing these kits into the hands of families in Kharkiv, Sumy, and beyond. It is exhausting work to pack them, but seeing them arrive makes every lifted kilo worth it.
