Non-perishable food, nappies, warm clothes, cleaning and hygiene products, baby food and milk, collected by the University Platform for Peace of the Universidad Católica de Murcia, in which the Spanish Olympic Committee participates, are already in Poland to be delivered to the refugees of the war in Ukraine. The ESP Solutions trailer arrived in Katowice in the early hours of Friday morning, where the volunteers of the UCAM expedition were waiting to help unload and deliver the supplies to those responsible for the distribution on the ground.

The volunteers have done their bit to fill this first trailer, which will be followed by a second one in the next few days, as donations continue to arrive at the Los Jerónimos Campus. This first expedition has had a double mission, as it has delivered this urgent aid and has also assisted refugees to facilitate their journey to the Region of Murcia.

Following the initiative of the Universidad Católica de Murcia, these companies and institutions have collaborated to make this first mission of the University Platform for Peace possible: Spanish Olympic CommitteeINCYDE Foundation, MarvimundoAurbusESP SolutionsDisfrimurAsterra PartnersUnit Seguros and BLP Motoenlace.
